Hydrostatic Compact Guidance System

Matching the design envelope of a monorail guidance system

Features: The carriages in monorail guidance systems cannot accommodate vibration damping. In order to allow appropriate damping of vibrations from the adjacent construction, additional elements such as the passive damping carriage RUDS-D for the linear recirculating roller bearing and guideway assemblies RUE-E are required, which is positioned between the carriages. In order to have the greatest effect when bending vibrations occur, however, the damping element must be positioned at the point of largest deflection. A good knowledge of the vibration patterns is therefore required.
