Stress relieving springs is the most common form of heat-treating springs. This video shows two large batch ovens used for stress relieving larger springs in large batch quantities. Smaller springs can be stress relieved in an in-line furnace. If not properly stress...
Most springs made from carbon wire are stress relieved at a temperature of 600 degrees F for a minimum of 30 minutes. Stress relieving, or “normalizing” as it’s sometimes referred to, allows the spring to relax or be relieved of stress, thereby holding its physical...
How do we make the ends of a spring flat? We grind the ends with high-speed precision, mechanical grinders like the one shown here grinding .375” 17-7 stainless steel wire. Compression springs, especially larger wire compression springs, are ground flat on the ends so...
Double Body Torsion Springs Overview Here’s another look at double body torsion springs. We’ve previously blogged on this topic and you can check that out here! In this post we’re providing more information regarding the production of these springs...
Katy Spring welcomes the newest addition to our #CNC #coiling family; the KHM #coiler. Due to demand, we purchased two of these machines as this will further increase our production capacity, especially for smaller #wire #springs. With this expansion in our...
Take a look at this. These torsion springs are connected by a common wire form configuration made from stainless steel wire being #manufactured on a CNC wire former. These machines can save a tremendous amount of processing time. Each bend in the wire requires set up...
