FAQ
Q1: What is the FUJI LATEX FWM-L Series?
A: The FWM-L Series consists of adjustable hydraulic shock absorbers designed for industrial machinery and environments where non-water-soluble coolant may be present.
Q2: What equipment is the FWM-L Series suitable for?
A: It was designed for machine tools, processing equipment, automation systems, slides, transfer mechanisms, cylinder ends, and other industrial machinery.
Q3: What models are included in the FWM-L Series?
A: Models include FWM-L1008VBD, FWM-L1210MBD, FWM-L1410RBD, FWM-L1612XBD, FWM-L2016EBD, FWM-L2530GBD, and FWM-L2725FBD.
Q4: What is the difference between FWM-L and FWM-E?
A: FWM-L was designed for non-water-soluble coolant, while FWM-E was designed for water-soluble coolant. Both series were later replaced by FWM-F.
Q5: Is the FUJI LATEX FWM-L Series still available?
A: The FWM-L Series was discontinued at the end of March 2019. The FWM-F Series is the designated replacement.
Q6: What is the maximum absorption energy of the FWM-L Series?
A: Maximum absorption energy varies by model and reaches 79.3 J with FWM-L2725FBD.
Q7: What is the impact speed range of the FWM-L Series?
A: The FWM-L Series has an impact speed range of 0.3~2 m/s and a maximum cycle rate of 60 cycles/min.
Q8: What is the replacement for FWM-L shock absorbers?
A: The designated replacement is the FUJI LATEX FWM-F Series, with corresponding size codes available for the former FWM-L models.
Q9: What should be checked when installing an FWM-L shock absorber?
A: Sufficient mounting strength, an external stopper, allowable eccentric angle, impact speed, absorption energy, equivalent mass, and cycle rate should all be checked before use.
Q10: How do I replace an existing FWM-L model?
A: Check the complete model number, thread size, stroke, absorption energy, and cap configuration, then select the corresponding FWM-F model or contact GATO Corporation for replacement selection support.
