In electromechanical and electronic products, there are three main categories of springs with high usage:
1) Automotive springs primarily for automobiles;
2) Springs for electronic and electrical products mainly used in household appliances;
3) Optical device springs are mainly used for cameras, copiers, and cameras.
Motor vehicle springs mainly develop towards high strength to reduce mass; Electronic product springs are mainly developing towards miniaturization; Optical device springs are mainly developing towards high strength and miniaturization. Developed corresponding spring design methods, materials, and processing technologies.
Application of Various Springs
A spring is a small component that permeates every corner of life, and its role cannot be underestimated. Common springs include tension springs, compression springs, bending springs, and torsion springs. Stretch springs are used for bows, arrows, and catapults. The usage environment is unrestricted and can be used in high-temperature and highly corrosive environments; Torque springs are used for machinery. Balancing mechanisms, such as industrial production in automobiles, machine tools, electrical appliances, etc; Compression springs are used for various household appliances, electrical equipment, motors, etc. Spring materials that work at low temperatures, such as carbon spring wire, piano wire, and 1Cr18Ni9 austenitic stainless steel spring wire, copper alloy, and nickel alloy, have good low-temperature toughness; Reinforced steel wire can be used for medium and small springs; Large and medium-sized springs can be made of cold drawn materials or polished steel after cold drawing. Different springs have different strengths, temperatures, conductivity, or permeability, so it is important to choose the appropriate spring.
