Industrial Applications

SHIP TO SHORE CRANES

Taylor Devices’ crane buffers and shock absorbers help protect ship-to-shore cranes by safely managing and absorbing high-energy impacts during container handling, thereby reducing structural loads, downtime, and maintenance requirements.

OVERHEAD CRANES

Taylor Devices’ industrial W-Series buffers provide reliable end-of-travel safety protection for overhead cranes, absorbing impact forces to protect crane structures, loads, and facility infrastructure.

STEEL MILLS

Designed for extreme industrial environments, Taylor Devices’ H Series buffers and custom designed slab buffers protect steel mill equipment from heavy impacts, vibration, and repetitive impacts during material handling operations.

ELEVATORS

Dampers can help control elevator cable sway caused by wind, rapid elevator movement, and dynamic loading, reducing vibration, improving ride quality, and protecting critical elevator components in tall buildings.

ROBOTICS & AUTOMATION

Taylor Devices’ compact M-Series Fluidicshok and Uni-Shock dampers improve precision and reliability in automated systems by controlling motion, reducing shock loads, and extending equipment life.

PACKAGING & MACHINE TOOLS

Taylor Devices’ compact M-Series Fluidicshok and Uni-Shock dampers enhance productivity by reducing vibration, stopping moving components safely, and protecting sensitive machinery during high-speed operations.

TRANSPORTATION

Taylor Devices’ energy absorption systems are used on light-rail and people mover infrastructure by managing end-of-travel impact forces and improving the durability to improve safety and protect transportation equipment and people.

ENERGY

Taylor Devices’ industrial products help protect critical energy infrastructure by mitigating shock, vibration, and impact loads on solar panel, power generators, transformers, and battery equipment storage systems (BESS) applications.

CRITICAL EQUIPMENT

Taylor Devices’ custom-engineered damping solutions to protect critical equipment such as electrical cabinets, control panels, and sensitive industrial systems by reducing damaging forces and shock inputs, while ensuring reliable operation in demanding environments.
