What are industrial springs?
An industrial spring is a spring element that stores, releases, or regulates mechanical energy. Depending on the application, springs differ in shape, material, spring characteristics, and mounting method. At De Spiraal, we manufacture, among others:
- Compression springs: for absorbing or returning axial forces
- Extension springs: for absorbing tensile forces between two components
- Torsion springs: for delivering torque around an axis
- Leaf springs: for controlled bending or spring action in compact spaces
- Clock springs: for constant force or rotational movement
- Wire forms: customer-specific shapes for locking, guiding, or actuation
- Wave springs and retaining springs: compact retaining solutions with a spring effect
Interested in all our spring solutions? In addition to the technical springs listed above, De Spiraal also produces a wide range of other spring variants, fully custom-made or available directly from stock.
Applications of industrial springs
- Mechanical engineering: Compression springs, torsion springs, and wire springs used in production machines, conveyor systems, and drive components, for force absorption, component return, and locking.
- Medical: Miniature extension springs, stainless steel compression springs, and leaf springs in operating tables, diagnostic covers, and locking mechanisms of medical instruments. Often manufactured from stainless steel 1.4310 for hygiene and corrosion resistance.
- Lighting technology: Wire springs and finger springs for securing and smooth adjustment of lamp heads, lens holders, or luminaires.
- Defence & Aerospace: Torsion springs, leaf springs, and retaining springs for vibration-resistant and temperature-resistant fastening systems with minimal tolerances.
Why choose industrial springs from De Spiraal?
At De Spiraal, we develop industrial springs that meet your functional, mechanical, and environmental requirements. From the design phase onward, we actively support you in defining force distribution, geometry, material selection, and mounting methods.
Our production is carried out using CNC-controlled machines with minimal tolerances. Thanks to our in-house toolmaking facility, design changes, prototyping, and small or large production runs can be realised quickly.
We process standard materials such as spring steel and stainless steel, but also supply special alloys upon request for thermal, chemical, or electrical loads. Post-processing treatments such as straightening, deburring, grinding, or heat treatment ensure optimal performance in your specific application.
