Rotary dampers are mechanical parts that improve the control and comfort of the object they are mounted on by continuously rotating at a slower speed.
In addition to being utilized on automobiles, rotary dampers from HXL are also used on doors and lids in a variety of applications to keep them from moving uncontrollably and to make sure they absorb noise, shocks, and vibrations that could harm equipment or keep it from operating at its best.
A single axis of rotation is used by rotary dampers to operate. The damper's oil generates a dampening torque that modifies the motion of its moving components. The torque magnitude in small rotary dampers is contingent upon the oil viscosity, the distance between the moving components, and their surface area.
Furthermore, temperature has an effect on the damper's torque. Generally speaking, torque decreases with increasing temperature. The torque increases with decreasing temperature. Compared to comparable products that share the same qualities, our rotary dampers offer less fluctuation in performance on these criteria.
The fluid inside the rotary dampers helps to control the opening and closing of lids and doors by absorbing external shocks and vibrations. This allows the dampers to be positioned on a surface and slows down their movement and impact.
Applications for rotary dampers include cabinets, cars, lawnmowers, petrol stations, coffee makers, bins, toilet seats, and any other product with a hinge or lid that needs to open and close regularly, silently, and smoothly. Numerous uses exist in the automotive industry as well, including handles, fuel doors, cup holders, glass holders, and many more.
Rotary dampers are a simple, low-maintenance option that safeguards the product's sensitive parts without drawing attention to themselves. They are actually tiny, nearly undetectable dampers.

Frequently Asked Questions
Upon 50,000 cycles, the rotary dampers retain over 80% of their damping torque when operated at a maximum cycle rate of 10/min and maximum rotational speed of 50 revs/min.
With torque to adjust impact absorption, our rotary dampers extend the life of items and enhance their quality. They also let you make safer, more effective, and quieter products.
For a variety of purposes, they are appropriate. Invisible screen windows, seats, bathroom goods, furniture, car interiors, and home appliances can all benefit from the usage of rotary dampers.
When a rotary damper provides resistance to rotation, that direction is known as the damping direction. The direction is mostly selected in a way so that it aligns with the anticipated damper forces.
The model, kind, and usage of a rotary damper all affect how long it lasts. Without leaking oil, our rotary damper has a minimum operating life of 50,000 cycles.
The usage of rotary dampers is possible in corrosive conditions, high temperature, and high humidity settings. Depending on the particular setting in which it will be utilized, it is crucial to select the appropriate damper type.
