The Festo DYSW-5-8-Y1F is a hydraulic shock absorber designed to slow down moving mechanical parts in a controlled way. It is used to absorb impact energy in automated systems, helping prevent damage caused by sudden stops or repeated collisions. With an energy absorption capacity of 10,000 Nm, it is suitable for applications where forces are high and uncontrolled movement would lead to wear or failure. This unit is typically installed in pneumatic and mechanical automation setups where motion needs to be stopped smoothly rather than abruptly.
When a moving load reaches the end of its travel, the shock absorber converts kinetic energy into heat through hydraulic damping. This reduces stress on machine frames, guide rails, cylinders, and mounting hardware.
The DYSW-5-8-Y1F has a compact form factor that allows it to fit into tight machine layouts. Its robust outer housing is built for repetitive impact cycles in industrial environments. The internal damping system is designed to perform consistently even under continuous operation. The shock absorber is maintenance-free under normal operating conditions, making it suitable for machines that run long hours without frequent service access.
It is usually mounted where moving parts need a controlled stop at the end of their travel.
