The spring constant describes at Compression springs , Tension springs and Torsion springs the increase in force in relation to the Suspension travel , or with torsion springs in relation to the angle of rotation. It is also called Spring
The spring blog
What does the Relaxation with metal springs? This has little to do with a recovery phase of the spring, but describes the unintentional increasing loss of force of the spring with increasing ambient temperature and duration of load. Or what
Spring steel for low temperatures
Whether in cooling systems, in space or other low temperature applications. Metal springs often have to withstand temperatures of up to – 200 degrees. Despite rising tensile strenght low temperatures have an unfavorable effect on the material, as the toughness
Compression springs spring systems
To absorb forces and movements are sometimes also Spring systems used. Due to the different arrangement of Compression springs A wide variety of force properties can be generated. Simple spring systems are: Compression springs parallel connection The springs are arranged
Maximum working temperature of spring materials
The level of the working temperature can significantly influence the function of a metal spring, as the tendency to Relaxation increases with increasing temperature. table : Limit temperatures from Spring materials with minimal relaxation material Maximum working temperature in °
Metal springs for extreme cases
Whether in corrosive liquids, at High temperature applications or at lowest temperatures , with dynamic or static loads, compressive, tensile or bending loads: With the Design of the metal spring in extreme cases there is more to be done than
Setting amount compression springs
Exceeds when the spring is loaded Shear stress the permissible value, a permanent deformation occurs, which manifests itself in the reduction of the unstressed length “L0”. This process is called “setting” in spring technology, which is associated with the properties
Function and strength verification for compression springs
Every spring design of a compression spring consists of two stages : 1. The proof of function, with the verification of the dimensions, spring rate, forces, spring travel and vibration behavior. 2. The proof of strength, with the verification of
Calculate pitch compression spring
The pitch “S” of compression springs, also known as the coil pitch, refers to the distance between their individual coils (wire center to wire center) and is calculated and determined using the following formulas. It is measured parallel to the
Ball blasting of metal springs
What is shot peening? Shot peening is a special kind of Surface treatment . In the process, blasting media are accelerated in special systems and hit the surface of the workpieces to be processed, such as Metal springs , steered.
