FLEXIBLE COUPLING TECHNOLOGY APPLIED TO
“MACHINED” SPRING MANUFACTURE

SANTA MARIA, CA., April 12, 2004—Helical Products Company, Inc. is applying its flexible coupling, helical beam know-how to the design and manufacture of high performance, “machined” springs.  This applied technology removes much of the guesswork from the trial and error usually associated with the production of machined springs.  Performance of the Helical machined spring has proven to be predictable and repeatable while meeting dimensionally tight tolerances.

Most engineers are familiar with wire wound spring products.  But they generally are not familiar with Helical’s use of the flexible helix beam, “flexure,” as a torsion or compression-extension spring.  The same Helical technology used in the manufacture of couplings also applies to machined springs.  Customer specified end attachments that can be integrated into a single machined spring include clamps, tangs, flanges or threaded ends.  Such attachment features, integrated with the HELI-CAL^® Flexure, can have a marked impact on system performance production efficiencies as well as overall cost savings.
