I can think of at least two methods right off top of my head:
- centrifugal governor, as used in old-school rotary phone dials (this could be too fragile though)
- an air cylinder with a small hole, as used in mechanical typewriters and vehicle shocks.
I am sure a real MechE can can come up with even more methods.
