Spiral springs also known as constant force spring or Clock spring. This type of spring is usually a coiled ribbon of spring steel used for functions such as counter balancing, retrieving, maintaining constant loads, transmitting motion, and clamping. It requires nearly the same force, no matter how long the extension. Spiral Springs, produced from flat steel, are characterized by the requirement that their coils do not touch during operation. This type of spring will exert a rotational torque, usually through 360 Degree rotation or less. The inner end of the spring is typically bent to attach to an arbor or hub. The outer end is then attached to the object that is rotating or utilizing the torque of the spring.
Can be supplied in various plating
Spiral Springs are manufactured on imported CNC Spring forming Machines or on SPM to maintain its criticality in applications.
Each spring manufactured goes through a series of rigorous tests conducted on in house testing facilities such as Computerized Load Testing, UTS Testing, Torsion testing, Profile Projector amongst others. All springs are supplied with ROHS raw material compliant report.
Spiral springs are used in electrical motor contact brushes that require short rotation (less than 360 degrees of rotation). They obtain a large amount of torque through a small amount of rotation. They are also used in Seat Belts, Door Handles, Door Closers, Car Windows, Motors, Point of Purchase Displays, Counter balances, Office Equipment’s, Carbon Brush, Clocks, Toys, Rewind Devices, among others.
Compression Springs are designed to operate with a compressive load in “Push Mode”. Compression Spring also has variable pitch between coils which are used to reduce solid height, buckling and surging to produce nonlinear load deflection characteristics.
Garter springs are essentially helical springs with connected ends; it forms a circle to provide a strong radial force. Garter springs are basically extension springs or compression springs whose ends are connected to make a garter belt that will exert force from its inner diameter.
Tension Springs/Extension Springs are helical wound coils, wrapped tightly together to create tension. Extension springs are springs which absorb and store energy by offering resistance to a pulling force.
Torsion Springs / Helical Coils Springs are designed to operate with torque / twisting / rotary force. A torsion spring is a spring that works by twisting its end along its axis. When it is twisted, it exerts a torque in the opposite direction, proportional to the amount (angle) it is twisted.
Die springs also known as high force compression springs. These springs are designed to maintain & withstand great levels of applied stress. They can handle 30% more stress than a standard compression spring & are also beneficial in extreme & stressful environments, even handling temperatures rising to 475 degrees.
Conical springs are compression springs which are helically coiled round wires forming a tapered or conical shape. They are used to provide balance & reduce the solid height by the coils telescoping into each other. Conical springs are basically compression springs coiled in increasing or decreasing outer diameters thus making its shape a cone or tapered one.
Clutch springs can be found in use on most motorcycle clutch assemblies. The function of these short coil springs is to continuously hold the friction & driven plates together through spring tension, preventing slippage except when the clutch lever is engaged.
Wire forms come in all sorts of shapes & sizes and each play different role. Wire forms are wires that have been bent into specific shapes, often to fulfil a particular purpose, one can commonly recognize wire form as a spring; though any shape that a wire takes is technically a wire form, other often seen wire forms include hooks and certain types of clips.
Sheet metal is available in flat pieces or coiled strips. The coils are formed by running a continuous sheet of metal through a roll slitter. Sheet metal is one of the fundamental forms used in metalworking, and it can be cut, bent and formed into a variety of shapes.
