At present, various types of constant-force spring hangers and supports designed and manufactured both in China and abroad use GB1239 cylindrical helical compression springs as the elastic energy-storage element. Because these springs have low stiffness and an ineffective power ratio as high as 65%, the resulting products are bulky and heavy, difficult to manufacture, and inconvenient to install during construction. This is especially true for […]

For engineers designing new products, procuring specialized components for the device remains a consistent hurdle. Numerous industries, from automotive and aerospace to medical and construction, need custom-made springs for specialized applications. Stock springs can be ideal for short-turn-around times, but they aren’t made to suit your device’s specifications. To this end, a custom spring manufacturer can be a vital solution for industrial engineers. Learn more

When you think of a spring, what first comes to mind is probably a helically wound spring consisting of a coiled wire of a given diameter. Constant force springs look a little different in that they typically consist of flat metal strips that have been pre-tensioned. Manufacturers can coil constant force springs with the same equipment as helix springs with just a few small changes to the

In modern equipment and system design, cables are no longer simple connecting elements. With increasing automation and compact structural layouts, cable tension control, organized routing, and operational safety have become critical factors affecting system reliability. Cable springs are widely adopted in this context as a key elastic component for managing cable movement and maintaining controlled tension. What Is a Cable Spring? A cable spring is

In advanced equipment manufacturing and precision engineering, conventional springs are often insufficient to meet the growing demands for complex load control, compact installation space, and long-term stability. Vortex Springs have emerged in response to these challenges, offering a refined elastic solution through innovative structural design and reliable mechanical performance. What Is a Vortex Spring? A vortex spring is a type of elastic component that stores

Constant force springs’ unique qualities make them the perfect counterbalance for heavy moving parts. One example is the door on a moving van. When you pull down an open door, it takes additional force to get the door going the first few inches–that’s because the spring’s full load (1.25 times its diameter) must be overcome. After that, the door slides down easily, with nearly constant force. In
