Die Springs For Press Tools, Fixtures & Moulds

Die spring is an elastic member, which stores energy and provides a force over a distance by elastic impression. Die springs have the ability to withstand relatively large compressions elastically. Die springs are mainly made up with rectangular wire to generate high loads as well as high compression. Die springs need proper selection. The first thing to be considered in the selection of spring will be type of job spring will be called upon to perform such as short period, long period, high speed, heavy load, high compression, etc. In slow moving dies, at low load and low compression, it is possible to achieve good performance of die springs. At high speed, heavy load and high compression the life expectancy of die spring decreases. The most common problem is, the use of die spring too close to, or beyond, the springs, physical limitations. (Use up to maximum operating conditions). To increase useful life of the die springs, one must use as many springs as the die will accommodate to produce the required amount of load with least amount of compression. Almost all die springs are identified with colour code, with reference to their load and compression. Always use die springs at ?Maximum life compression and load? given in the catalogue, to reduce chance of early spring failure, as well as to avoid the resulting costs of downtime, loss of production, and maintenance costs. The company provides the right guidelines for spring selection and operating conditions.
