The Stabilus Group provides motion control solutions used in a range of applications and industries. Its product portfolio includes gas springs, dampers, electromechanical actuators and grippers for automation. The Group consists of six brands that support applications ranging from standard production items to limited-run and custom components.

Gas springs for different applications and order volumes

Gas springs are a key product category for Stabilus, which has operated in this field since its founding in 1934. The Group offers gas spring products through four brands based in Germany and through subsidiaries worldwide, with a portfolio that includes nearly 700,000 product variants.

These gas springs are used in applications beyond automotive and commercial vehicle systems for lifting, lowering, opening and closing components. They are also used in swivel chairs, furniture, industrial systems, mechanical engineering, medical equipment, aerospace and defense technologies, construction and building technology, construction machinery, caravans, trailers and specialty vehicles. In these applications, gas springs provide movement, support and damping for hoods, flaps, hatches, doors and other components that need to move safely into defined positions.

Stabilus Motion Control Ecosystem

The Stabilus Group supports gas spring requirements across different applications and markets through multiple customer channels. These channels are part of a motion control ecosystem that connects its brands, including ACE Stoßdämpfer GmbH, HAHN Gasfedern GmbH, Stabilus and General Aerospace GmbH. Each brand contributes engineering capabilities and serves different customer needs.

ACE supplies gas springs for industrial applications in small to medium volumes, including catalog products with valve technology for custom force adjustment. The company also offers rapid prototype delivery. HAHN Gasfedern GmbH produces gas springs from single units to larger series, with products customized to customer specifications. Its offerings include stainless steel products and application-specific options such as high- and low-temperature seals, seals for heavy-duty construction machinery, protective tubes and other features.

Stabilus provides gas springs for OEM and series applications, supported by large-scale production, a global presence and automotive quality standards. General Aerospace GmbH supplies certified gas springs for aerospace applications with defined safety requirements.

Together, these brands provide gas spring and motion control products for a range of industries, supported by engineering teams, sales teams, application engineering and system consulting.
