Spring Applications
Start with what your mechanism must do: rewind a cord, advance a product row, assist a lift or deliver torque. These guides help you define the operating requirement before selecting a spring.
We make custom spring components for these mechanisms. Each guide explains the movement, installation details and working requirements we need to select and develop the spring with you.
Retractable cord reels
Balance pull force, return travel and the available drum and housing space. Show the attachments, installed preload and working direction.
Define a cord reel spring requirementShelf pushers
Define the push needed from a fully loaded row to the final item. Include pack dimensions, rail friction and usable stroke.
Plan shelf pusher force and travelMonitor and display lifts
Relate spring assistance to the moving load, guides and transmission. Separate lifting effort from position holding.
Review display lift inputsCordless blinds
Describe load through the travel, winding geometry and the connection between the spring and the blind mechanism.
Specify a cordless blind springMechanical energy storage
Define useful torque over the release range, working turns and winding input for a spring-powered mechanism.
Review torque and working turnsHave a different mechanism or only a sample?
Send photos, installation dimensions and any force or torque targets you have. We can start with your drawing or sample and help identify the remaining information needed to develop the spring.
