Air springs are indeed a key technology in modern washing machines and in a variety of heavy-duty applications, with their unique benefits:

Why air springs work so well in washing machines:

• Excellent vibration isolation: This is a key function of washing machines, especially high-speed drum washing machines. Air springs significantly reduce the transmission of strong vibrations generated during the spin cycle to the machine frame and surrounding floor/structure. This prevents "walking", reduces noise, and minimizes stress on internal components.
• Load leveling and automatic adjustment: The air pressure in the spring automatically adjusts as the size and distribution of the wash load changes. This keeps the drum in the optimal position relative to the tub/seal and ensures that vibration isolation is always maintained regardless of load size or imbalance.
• Noise reduction: By effectively dampening vibrations, air springs significantly reduce the noise level of washing machines.
• Durability: Made from strong rubber compounds such as EPDM and reinforced with fabric or steel cord, modern air springs are designed to withstand the harsh environment (moisture, detergents, constant movement) of the inner tank of a washing machine for many years.
• Smooth Suspension: They provide a softer, more compliant suspension than traditional coil springs, providing better stability during stirring and spinning.
