Spring Selection
Spring Selection-Springs
There are various types of springs, ranging from common helical springs to complex bent springs. Each type of spring has its unique characteristics and applications. When selecting the appropriate spring, the following factors need to be considered:
Material Selection: Spring materials include SUS304, SUS316, SUS631, SWP, SWC, spring steel, phosphor bronze wire, beryllium copper wire, etc.
Spring Types: Compression springs, tension springs, torsion springs, spiral springs, bent components, wire-formed springs, retaining rings, special-shaped springs, leaf springs, and more.
Spring Function: This depends on the customer's needs. Compression springs focus on the compressive force for compression stroke, tension springs are designed for the stretching load in the extension stroke, and torsion springs provide torsional force based on the angular displacement.
Working Environment: Temperature extremes can affect the elasticity of springs. High humidity can lead to spring corrosion. Corrosive environments, such as acidic or alkaline conditions, can accelerate spring degradation.
Load Conditions:
Static Load: Stable loads, primarily concerned with the spring’s stiffness.
Dynamic Load: Rapidly changing loads, requiring consideration of the spring’s fatigue life.
Impact Load: Instantaneous high loads, necessitating consideration of the spring's toughness.
Space Limitations:
Installation Space: The spring’s size and shape must fit the installation space.
Interference: The spring's movement range must not interfere with other components.
How to Choose the Right Spring:
Inquire with Ruisheng Hardware Spring Manufacturers; professional personnel will design and advise, and evaluate your load, dimensions, and any compatibility issues you may have.
