What are Springs?
Springs are elastic mechanical elements that deform when force is applied and return to their original shape once the force is removed. This ability allows springs to store and release energy efficiently, making them essential in mechanical systems.
From simple devices to complex industrial machinery, springs play a key role in motion control, vibration reduction, and load management. HENNLICH ensures high-quality spring solutions tailored to meet diverse industrial needs.
Variants of Springs (Types of Springs)
There are several types of springs, each designed for specific functions and applications:
- Compression Spring – Designed to resist compressive forces and commonly used in automotive and industrial equipment
- Tension Spring – Also known as extension springs, used where pulling force is required
- Oval Wire Tension Spring – Specially designed for enhanced strength and reduced stress concentration
- Disc Spring – Ideal for high-load applications with limited space
- Conical Compression Spring – Provides stability and reduced solid height compared to standard compression springs
- Spring Pin – Used for fastening and positioning components in assemblies
- Leg Spring – A type of torsion spring with extended legs for rotational force applications
- Stamp Spring – Manufactured through stamping processes for precision applications
- Snap Ring – Used as a retaining ring to secure components on shafts or in housings
HENNLICH offers a wide range of these types of springs, ensuring reliable performance across various industries.
