FAQ
Q1: What is the FUJI LATEX FA / FWM Series?
A: The FUJI LATEX FA / FWM Series is an adjustable hydraulic shock absorber for absorbing impact at automation equipment, slide, cylinder, transfer-mechanism, and conveyor end stops.
Q2: What equipment is the FA / FWM Series suitable for?
A: It is suitable for automated lines, slide ends, cylinder ends, transfer mechanisms, conveyors, and industrial machinery end stops.
Q3: Is FA / FWM fixed or adjustable?
A: FA / FWM is an adjustable hydraulic shock absorber series that allows damping performance to be adjusted according to machine load, impact speed, and stopping conditions.
Q4: What is the difference between FA / FWM and FNJ?
A: FNJ is a fixed hydraulic shock absorber for stable load and speed conditions. FA / FWM is adjustable and suitable for applications where operating conditions may vary.
Q5: What is the difference between FA / FWM and FA-F / FWM-F?
A: FA / FWM is the standard adjustable hydraulic shock absorber series. FA-F / FWM-F is the coolant-compatible specification for coolant or cutting-fluid environments.
Q6: What main models are available?
A: Main models include FA-0806, FA-1008, FWM-1008, FA-1210, FWM-1210, FA-1410, FWM-1410, FA-1612, FWM-1612, FA-2016, FWM-2016, FA-2530, FWM-2530, FA-2725, and FWM-2725.
Q7: What is the maximum absorption energy?
A: Depending on the model, maximum absorption energy ranges from 1.4 to 79.3 J.
Q8: How should B, BD, D, and SL types be selected?
A: B type is suitable for low-speed conditions, BD type for medium-speed conditions, D type for high-speed conditions, and SL type for super-low-speed conditions. Final selection should match machine speed, load, and cycle rate.
Q9: Can FA / FWM reduce machine impact noise?
A: Yes. Hydraulic cushioning helps reduce end-stop impact, collision noise, vibration, and mechanical wear.
Q10: How do I select the right FA / FWM model?
A: Check maximum absorption energy, equivalent mass, impact speed, cycles per minute, stroke, thread size, and tip specification, then download the catalog or contact GATO Corporation for selection support.
