Safety shock absorbers from ACE Controls are carefully developed and tested to meet the demands of emergency stops and unexpected failures. ACE’s safety shock absorbers provide a cost-effective alternative to standard shock absorbers, specially designed to protect machines and personnel during occasional critical events. After absorbing a shock, they should be replaced to ensure continued function and safety. The products are available in a variety of designs and mounting options, making them easy to adapt to different applications and machine constructions. In the event of an emergency stop or if the regular function fails, a properly functioning safety shock absorber can be crucial in reducing the risk of serious damage to both machinery and personnel. ACE Controls therefore offers a product range of safety shock absorbers that reliably brake harmful forces from moving loads and ensure safety in demanding situations.

Low reaction forces with long strokes.
High return forces with gas pressure accumulator.
To prevent serious incidents caused by, for example, control system failure or uncontrolled acceleration of machinery, safety shock absorbers are recommended. These damping solutions are designed for single-use emergency situations and should be replaced or refurbished after a stop has occurred.
The safety shock absorbers from ACE Controls demonstrate their greatest advantages in emergency stop scenarios, offering highly cost-effective protection. Furthermore, they can all be easily integrated in the existing construction designs and largely work independent of energy supplies.
Expensive production equipment or sensitive components such as circuit boards and computer hardware can be effectively protected with emergency stop systems. By quickly and safely halting the system in the event of a fault or malfunction, mechanical damage, costly repairs, and production downtime can be avoided—especially in environments where precision and electronics are critical to operations.
Typical applications where an emergency stop can be crucial include overhead cranes, heavy manufacturing industries such as steel mills and paper plants, as well as systems operating sluice gates. In these environments, an effective emergency stop system can prevent serious accidents and equipment damage—and in many cases, protect both human lives and valuable assets.
