Bent strip parts

With laser generation, components are built up layer by layer from powdered metallic materials used in serial production such as 1.2709 steel or 1.4543 steel. Thanks to state-of-the-art technology, this enables us to transfer your computer-generated 3D/CAD models reliably over to their physical form. Here, thin coats of the powder materials are applied to a base object before being melted using a laser into the desired contour. This process is continued on a revolving basis until the workpiece is complete with the final geometric form and the relevant functional properties. Incidentally, we reclaim excess powder material during this process and use all of it for later productions again. Our services in sample development also include technical springs, which we produce in small batches for your sample application. Traditional sample development services are a new addition to our portfolio. Here, we produce a small-scale series of your bent strip parts from original materials.

We can produce the parts you require using specific tools or on special-purpose machines. We produce complex forms and assembly parts with strip thicknesses of 0.10 to 3.00 and with strip widths of up to 100 mm – depending on the material used. The manufacturing processes that we offer include: Punching, forming, embedding, welding, bolting, riveting and mounting. We perform the assembly of small batches by hand, while larger volumes are performed automated if you so wish. Our hybrid sub-assembly production includes the over-moulding of punched parts made of wire or metal with a variety of plastics or silicones. In order to ensure that the desired braking element features optimum properties, we make use of both the temperature durability and the haptic advantages of silicone and the weight advantage of plastic when combining these materials in this fashion. Guide tube assemblies, a combination of springs and tubes, are part of the hybrid component portfolio.

Bent wire parts represent a separate part of our production range. Bent parts differ from springs such as extension springs, compression springs and wave springs in terms of how they are produced. This type of spring is not only processed with automated machinery, but also involves a considerable amount of special handling, which we perform using our range of state-of-the-art equipment. Precision production with our high-tech machinery: Our range of machinery with an in-house toolmaking workshop enables three-dimensional bent parts to be produced with a wide variety of forms and with specialised finishes applied to the ends. Our range of machining processes includes: Bevelling, embossing, thread cutting, thread rolling, turning and milling. For bent wire parts, both CNC bending and mould-based bending are possible as production solutions.We process wire thicknesses of 0.20 to 8.00mm.Tool-based: 0.50 to 8.00 mm. Coating of part surfaces: Oiling, Vibratory finishing, Galvanisation.
