Suspension of a control cabinet on a rocker arm
Wire rope isolators are essential for protecting sensitive electronic components in demanding defense environments. This case study explores how they were used to safeguard a control cabinet on a rocket launcher during transportation and rocket launch, ensuring the reliability of critical systems despite extreme vibrations and shocks.
In a recent defense application, wire rope isolators were used to protect a control cabinet on a rocket launcher from vibrations, shocks, and impacts during transportation and launch. These isolators absorbed forces from road conditions and handling, preventing damage to sensitive electronics. During launch, they mitigated intense vibrations from ignition, ensuring the control systems remained functional. Their robust design safeguarded critical equipment, enhancing mission success and highlighting the importance of wire rope isolators in protecting military technologies in extreme environments.
