We made this unit of a linkage without really thinking through how we're going to damp it. We want it's motion to look like the following:

where it starts off fast and then have a damper engage for the bottom part of the rotation. We're not really sure how to...
I have a 4 bar linkage that I want to damp during it's descent (see photo). I'm looking at using rotary dampers but the specs for even the strongest one doesn't seem to be able to hold very much weight... am I reading the specs wrong or is there another away
