Advantage of this matching:
Good response of the vehicle suspension
ensures greater driving comfort.
The disadvantage of this matching occurs in
the case of a quick succession of irregularities
in the road. If the time between the individual
impacts is no longer sufficient for rebound,
the suspension can “harden” significantly in
extreme cases, impairing driver comfort and
driver safety.
Damping matching
We can basically distinguish between
compression and rebound in the damping
process.
The damping force during compression is
generally smaller than during rebound.
Consequently, irregularities in the road are
transmitted to the vehicle bodywork with
diminished force. The spring absorbs the
energy which is quickly dissipated during
rebound by the more efficient action of the
shock absorber.
