Industrial compression springs
As the name suggests, industrial compression springs are used in many everyday industrial equipment, from the smallest machines in factories to heavy construction machinery, industrial compression springs are widely used.
Industrial compression springs are mainly used in: hardware, machine tools, agricultural equipment, industrial robots, oil refineries, sawmills, paper mills, mining equipment, construction equipment and so on.
Industrial compression springs are mechanical devices that store and release energy, which are designed to withstand compressive forces and return to their original shape when under pressure, often used in applications that require repetitive motion or shock absorption.
Working principle：
The working principle of industrial compression springs is based on Hooke’s law, which states that the deformation of the spring is proportional to the applied force. When the external force is applied to the spring, the spring will be compressed and deformed. The deformation makes the spacing between atoms or molecules inside the spring shrink, the electron cloud inside the spring is compressed, the bond energy between atoms or molecules increases, and the interior reaches a state of equilibrium. When the external force stops acting, the spring will restore its deformation through the elastic restoring force, and return to the original state. This elastic recovery force enables the compression spring to store and release energy.
Types of industrial compression springs
There are a variety of springs on the market, the more common types are:
Openings are the most basic type of compression springs, they are open at one end and closed at the other, and the coils are evenly spaced over the entire length of the spring, making them ideal for situations where space is limited.
A closed end spring is similar to an open end spring, but has a closed end instead of an opening. These springs are designed to provide a consistent compression rate and are ideal for applications requiring high precision.
Conical springs are shaped like vertebral bodies, with one end having a smaller diameter than the other, and these springs are designed to provide a progressive compression rate, meaning that the force required to compress the spring increases as the spring is further compressed.
Hourglass Springs are similar to conical springs, but with a narrower middle section, these springs are designed to provide a more stable compression rate and are ideal for applications requiring precise control.
Application of industrial compression springs:
- Automotive industry: They are used in various components of cars, such as suspension systems, brakes and engines, and these springs provide the necessary support and cushioning for smooth operation.
- High altitude aerospace: Can be used for aircraft components, such as landing gear, engines, etc. These springs provide the necessary support and cushioning for safe operation.
- Construction: Used in a variety of building applications, such as building foundations and Bridges, these springs provide the necessary support and cushioning for safe operation.
- Manufacturing: Used in a variety of manufacturing applications such as stamping, forming and assembly. These springs provide the necessary forces for these processes.
Industrial compression springs are an essential part of every industry, and they are designed to provide the support and cushioning needed for smooth and safe operation. With many types and materials on the market, it is important to choose the right spring for your application.
