Global Passive Shock Absorber Market Definition

Traditionally automotive suspension system designs have been compromising on three conflicting criteria namely road handling, load carrying capacity, and passenger comfort. The suspension system must support the vehicle, provide directional control using handling movement and provide effective isolation of passengers and load disturbance A passive shock absorber is a mechanical device, designed to smooth out or moist shock impulse and dissipate kinetic energy. Therefore, the shock absorber system refers to the group of mechanical components that connect the wheels to the frame or body.

Numerous common vehicles today use a passive shock absorber to control the dynamics of a vehicle’s vertical motion as well as spinning and tilting. In addition, passive express that the suspension component cannot supply energy to the suspension system. Furthermore, the passive shock absorber system limits the motion of the body and wheel by steeping their analogous velocities to a rate that gives the required ride comfort. Therefore, this is done by using some type of damping element placed between the body and the wheels of the vehicle, such as a hydraulic shock absorber.

In addition, the prime function of the passive shock absorber is to absorb and dissipate the impact kinetic energy to the bound that accelerations exacted upon the airframe are reduced to a bearable level. Moreover, shock absorbers use cylinders and pistons along with flexible valves to curb the flow of hydraulic fluid to set the damping force in both the retract (jounce) and extend (rebound) positions. Shock absorbers are set to retract under a lower force than to extend. This action absorbs road bump forces and dampens spring fluctuation resulting in better vehicle control and ride.

Global Passive Shock Absorber Market Overview

The rise in disposable income acts as a primary growth driver in the Global Passive Shock Absorber Market. Growing appeal for luxury and relief in vehicles and quieter cabins has contributed momentous to the growth of the Passive Shock Absorber Market. Therefore, shock absorber plays a prime role in magnifying luxury and comfort and diminishing cabin vibrations in cars. In addition, a quality ride gives relief to passengers, decreases damage to cargo, and reduces driver fatigue during long journeys. Therefore, the passive shock absorber is responsible for the quality of rides and control of car handling, as cars with firm suspension could result in enhanced control of body movements and quicker reactions. Also, ambulances have a special need to amplify vehicle shock absorbers to avoid further injury to already ill passenger.

Therefore, such elements have uplifted the demand for higher driving comfort, which positively impacts the growth of the Passive Shock Absorber Market. Moreover, elements such as development in global standards for vehicles and the high maintenance cost of advanced suspension systems act as the retrain element and diminish the growth of the Passive Shock Absorber Market. On the contrary, the growth in appeal for lightweight passive shock absorber systems and upgrades of the modern passive shock absorbers is expected to provide better opportunities for the expansion of the Passive Shock Absorber Market. In addition, the universal availability makes it the base suspension in nearly every car on the market today. Cars with passive shock absorbers are more affordable and easier to find than their counterparts which act as the key growth driver of the Passive Shock Absorber Market.
