Product description
Crane buffers are safety relevant components, in case of emergency they protect cranes and trolleys, by their optimized force-stroke
performance curve, against high impacts. The SIBRE range of products includes hydraulic buffers with gas retraction as well as cellular
buffers for smaller travel carriages.
Our HD series hydraulic buffers are especially developed for harsh environments; these products are mainly used in port applications and
steel making plants. The damping characteristic of the buffers can be adjusted by a variable throttle system, so it can be optimized for
every specific application.
An outstanding product lifetime is guaranteed by the hard chrome plated piston rod, special sealings and hydraulic fluid as well as high
level precision in production. Hydraulic buffers are available with different diameters of piston; with a stroke of 50-600 mm a damping
capacity of 10-330 kJ can be realized.

Metal Buffers
Type K
The function of the buffer, applied on lifting and travelling systems (Bridge cranes), is to absorb kinetic energy and, in case of limit swit-
ches’ failure, to deaden the impact of the bridge or the trolley against the stoppers at the end of the rails.
The buffers consist of a
base and a headjoined
by
a central
rod and welded
on telescopic
tubes, which
contain
some rings
in natural
rubber working in series to compression, separated by metal plates.
Operating environment
They are suitable for both in- and outdoors use, with a temperature between -20 ° and +50 ° C. The coating of the metal body is made
by the polyester powder painting cycle for exterior gray color. The safety chain and shackle are galvanized.
Range of application
The function of buffers is to slow down and stop the course of a moving mass by absorbing the kinetic energy, according to the values
given in the datasheets on the following pages. Any other use is considered improper.
Versions
Available versions: according to the energy that they are able to absorb and depending on the length of the stroke, different buffer types
are available:
The „A“ type suitable for standard applications.
The „C“ type with longer stroke is particularly suitable for high speed cranes, as it returns a lower reaction force in relation to the
absorbed energy.
Type K/A
Type K/C

Metal Buffers Type K
Buffer selection
Select the buffer according to the energy that must be absorbed by the buffers themselves. If mounting a pair of buffers on the head-
boards of the bridge crane, the distinct values of the bridge and the trolley’s mass and the travelling speed of the crane are necessary
elements for the dimensioning.
The value of the crane’s mass must also include any non- oscillating load, while excluding the suspended load to the ropes, as required
by laws CNR -UNI 10021-73, section I FEM, DIN 15018.
When determining the impact speed, if means of speed reduction are provided, it can be multiplied by a reduction coefficient of 0.7, as
required by the previously quotaded laws. Otherwise, for a higher security, this coefficient can be ignored.
The kinetic energy of the impacting mass is equally distributed just when the trolley, as well as the structure’s center of gravity, are in
central position. Otherwise one of the buffers will be more stressed than the other one. Each of them is not going to absorb just half of
the total kinetic energy, the most critical position of the impacting mass must be considered.
Apply the following formula to quickly calculate the energy developed by the impact on the single buffer of the bridge:
Energy [J] = (0,5 * bridgemass [t] + trolleymass [t]) * (bridgespeed [m/min’])2 *0,142
Apply the following formula to quickly calculate the energy developed by the impact on the single buffer of the trolley:
They derive from a variety of mathematical simplifications of the formula E = ½ m * s2, where „m“ is the impacting mass expressed in
Kg, resulting from the ratio between weight and coeff. 9,81 m/s2, while „s“ is the speed at the moment of contact expressed in m/sec.
To determine the type of the buffer more easily, diagrams on the following pages can be used.
WARNING
In case of bridge cranes with overhanging beams it is necessary to take into account the higher energy which goes on the buffer.

To
find the correct buffer series type „K/A“, cross-check the values of the speed and the impacting mass. The energy curve located to
the
