Coil Springs

Tolerances are as per IS 7906 or DIN 2095

In spite of having different design techniques, materials and manufacturing processes, all kinds of mechanical springs have some common considerations.

A good spring design should consider a lot of other things apart from dimensional and load considerations.

Other areas of considerations are

• • Operating environment in terms of temperature, corrosive environment etc.
• • Frequency of Operations
• • Speed of load
• • Desired spring life

An intelligent designer should consider all the above factors and give better value for money to his customer. Here at IIS we can help you design a variety of springs for almost any type of application to suite you specific needs, Please feel free to contact us.

Springs selection, usage and life cycle

Generally, a product designer would like all the components to last the life of the product. Thus it is expected that the life of the spring must be equal or little less than the life of the product for which it is used. Selection of right manufacturer, who have an idea & experience about the problems faced, is very important when a long spring life is required. No spring manufacture can guarantee zero failure in a batch of springs irrespective of time, money and efforts taken to guarantee long life. Spring life depends on many factors, which will eventually add to the cost of springs. The detail test conditions, expected life and failure rate must be clearly defined instead of vague specifications. Intelligent design, right material and tight quality control in material and production process can increase the spring life. Predicting exact spring life has to be done with careful consideration and with manufacturer's consultation.

Material :

Deciding the material is a crucial for a spring designer. A List of material used by us to manufacturer springs is available here. It is difficult to derive the amount of material required to be used in a spring based on the load vs. deflection requirement. Since Deflection is directly proportional to load, the amount of material required to changes accordingly. Different materials have different tensile strengths, which are used in initial design calculations. The table below shows the approximate tensile strengths.

Costs Vs Tolerances

Springs must be produced in a cost effective way because cost is a major factor in today's competitive environment. Therefore generous tolerances must be given to allow manufacturer springs by ordinary methods. It is always better to use tolerances based on functional requirements. This will provide an option to the manufacturer to make the necessary adjustments in the variations in size and properties of material. Tight tolerances reduce the production speed and rejection leading to increased cost both to the manufacturer and the customer.

Burrs :

While manufacturing springs, several operations produce burrs. Since burrs are harmless in nature, they are often neglected. Burrs formed after spring end grinding or cutting can sometimes interfere with the normal working of the springs by creating friction in the guides or any parts holding the springs. It is necessary for the manufacturer and the customer agree on the limits of the burr based on the spring design and working.

Hydrogen Embrittlement :

Hydrogen gets absorbed into material when carbon steel is pickled for electroplating process preparation. This leads to early failure of springs at lower tensile stress even under short cycle tests. Many times the cracks develop in pickling or plating bath but appear only after plating or sometime when the plated springs are in use. The risk of Hydrogen embrittlement is more when material is subjected to high stress, is with high Rockwell Hardness and has high carbon content. At equal hardness level, tempered carbon steel has more chances of hydrogen embrittlement than cold drawn carbon steel. Hydrogen embrittlement cannot be checked quickly or detected by a testing method. Scragging the springs up to the maximum working load or up to the solid height for a long period can surface any cracks cause due to hydrogen embrittlement. To avoid failure due to hydrogen embrittlement it is important to bake the spring immediately after plating to drive the hydrogen out of the material.

Spiral Torsion Springs

These are generally made of rectangular section material, flat strip, with round edges or normal slit edges with equal or increasing space between coils. These are wound flat to achieve torque. For first 3600, torque delivered per revolution is linear. Therefore, these are generally used for less than 3600 rotational applications. If the these springs are rotated more than one turn the coils will touch each other causing friction leading to erratic loads.

They generally have a lug across the I.D. of the spring, which engages a slot in the shaft, over which it works. The I.D. can be made with holes to engage an arbor protrusion or can be made in a special shape to fit over a similar shaped shaft. The outside end can be formed as per customer's requirement.

Application of Sprial Springs : These are general used as brush springs in D.C. mortors, anti-backslash springs, Alternators, Drill presses, Vertical mill, Counter balance springs etc.
