Conventional gas springs may burst in the eventofanover-extendedstroke. Components may come loose and be ejected.

FIBROGASSPRINGSAREDIFFERENT:

in the event of an overstroke and depending on the spring type the patented protection system will ensure that either the cylinderwallofthegasspringisdeformedinapredefined manner (A) or the piston rod destroys a rupture bolt in the floor of the cylinder (B), therebyallowing the gas to escape into the atmosphere.

THEBENEFITFORYOU:

■Safeworking environmentand reduced risk of damage to the tool

POSSIBLECAUSESOFTRIGGERING:

Lackofstroke limitationsin the tool/machineandplacing the pistonrodsundera load (e.g.sheet-metal holder，slidereset, etc.),double sheet, incorrect installation position,etc.

A V>max

If,foranyreason,toolcomponentsshould getstuck and the piston rod should be freelyreleasedfromits compressed position，conventional gas springs may posea safety risk as the piston may not be retained in the gas spring.

FIBROGASSPRINGSAREDIFFERENT:

Special guidesandapatentedsafetystopinthepistonrods ensure your safety.If the speed is too high during the return stroke, the collar on the piston rod will automatically break.The integratedsafetystop thendestroys theseal,whichallows the gas to escape into the atmosphere and the gas spring to become depressurised.

THEBENEFITFORYOU:

■Safeworking environment and reduced risk of damage to the tool

POSSIBLECAUSESOFTRIGGERING:

Sudden loosening of jammed components,such assheetmetal holder,slide,ejector,scraperfunction,etc.

OVERPRESSUREPROTECTION

Conventional gas springs can burst if the internal pressurerisesaboveamaximum permitted value.Thismay posea safety risk for operators and tools.

FIBROGASSPRINGSAREDIFFERENT:

if the pressure rises above the maximum permitted value, the safetycollaronthesealingsetisautomaticallydestroyed.The gasthen escapes into the atmosphere and the gas spring is depressurised.

THEBENEFITFORYOU:

■Safeworking environment and reduced risk of damage to the tool

POSSIBLECAUSESOFTRIGGERING:

Incorrect filling (max.filling pressure 150 or 180 bar,nitrogen), infeedof liquidoperatingmaterial,etc.

THESAFERCHOICE RELIABILITYFEATURES

FLEXIBLEGUIDES: THEFLEXGUIDETM SYSTEM

The Flex GuideTM System is a flexible guide in the gas springwhich absorbs lateral movementsof the piston rod. Itminimises

friction and lowers the operating temperature.

THEBENEFITSFORYOU:

■Extended service life ■Increased stroke frequency, i.e.more strokes per minute

Lateral Movement

SAFEHOSECONNECTIONS: THEDUALSEALTMSYSTEM

The FlBRO Dual SealTM System combines ametal sealwitha soft elastomer seal. On hose connection systems,the system

provides two leak-tight connections and prevents rotation.

THEBENEFITSFORYOU:

■Leak-tight connection,even under vibrations
■High process reliability
■Minimised tool down time
■Simple installation thankstoanti-rotation function

WIRELESSMONITORING: THEWIRELESSPRESSURE MONITORING(WPM)SYSTEM

The optional Wireless Pressure Monitoring System(WPM)(patented)wirelessly monitors the pressure and temperature of FlBRO gas springs. Beforea defective part is produced，the press operator receivesamessage from the WPMand can takeappropriate action.

THEBENEFITSFORYOU:

■Preventative qualityassurance ■High process reliability ■Minimised tool down time ■Reduced maintenance and costs

Potential faultsare individually displayed.Asa result,service intervals can be extended. Maintenance and repair costs are reduced.

PROTECTEDPISTONRODS: FIBROCONCERTINASHROUDS

The FIBROPistonRod Protection (patented) reliably protects the piston rods ingasspringsagainst dirt,oil and emulsion. In this way，the system prevents damage to the piston rod surface and leaksat internal seals.

THEBENEFITSFORYOU:

■Significantly longer service life for gas springs under harsh operating conditions
