1. Weight
Measure the moving lid, cover or seat component including attached parts.
Application engineering
Custom Motion Control & Positioning Dampers
Custom rotary damper, positioning and motion-control engineering support from Uniwise.
Selection logic
Match the component to the real movement.
When a standard damper does not fit, Uniwise can review special torque, positioning behavior, drive interfaces and custom structures. All products support special torque customization.
Best starting data: weight + dimensions + pivot + target movement
The final damper or hinge selection should also consider movement speed, friction, springs, installation space, rotation direction and the number of damping elements.
2. Center of gravity
Measure the pivot-to-CG distance. If the exact center of gravity is unknown during development, share the overall geometry and an approximate pivot position; the engineering review can refine it later.
3. Movement target
Define opening angle, desired closing time or free-stop behavior.
4. Final testing
Validate the selected or customized torque on the actual mechanism.
