Bumpers

By Design News Staff -- Design News, June 22, 1998

Bumpers are available in square, round, and rectangular versions in various sizes, durometers, and rubber types. The bumpers use either black neoprene, white nitrile, or urethane; are bonded to solid-steel cores; and are used to guard, stop, align, position, or protect parts through each manufacturing step. In conveyer systems, they can be used as stops to precisely position parts for each workstation or as guides to move parts around corners or curves.
