Structure and Operating Principle of Gas Springs
Gas springs utilize compressed nitrogen gas combined with hydraulic oil to regulate motion. A piston and rod assembly moves inside a sealed metal cylinder, where the pressurized nitrogen generates a constant force, ensuring controlled and stable extension.
Key performance features of these gas springs include
✅ Smooth and Vibration-Free Operation:
Thanks to the use of pressurized gas, gas springs provide smooth, stable, and consistent movement.
✅ Controlled Speed and Force:
The gas pressure can be adjusted to regulate the opening and closing speed as well as the applied force.
✅ Maintenance-Free Operation:
Unlike mechanical springs, gas springs feature a sealed system with internal lubrication, eliminating the need for periodic maintenance.
✅ High Durability and Long Service Life:
With a robust and engineered structure, gas springs offer long-lasting performance and reliable operation under various environmental conditions.
