A variety of small flat leaf springs
Small leaf springs are found in battery contacts where force is applied to maintain a constant connection between the battery and the device. The most common challenge in portable devices is to maintain contact with the battery while being subjected to movement and impact. This is where we come in…
Atlantic Precision Spring has aided in resolving this situation for many of our customers through the production of our top quality small leaf springs. We go through the process of creating prototypes that will be rapidly produced in our short run department to ensure fit and function before large volume production tools are built. These samples are able to have the same precision of production parts without the wait for the tooling to be completed.
From Design to Finish, We Can Help
Atlantic Precision Spring is able to aid in the design of the parts, which starts by understanding the application and environment of the product. We assist in determining the proper material type, thickness, and finish required. Some plating options include:
- Nickel
- Electroless Nickel
- Gold
- Zinc
- Zinc Nickel
- Silver
- Black Oxide
- Teflon
- Powder Coat
Once the material properties have been determined, the spring forces and deflection can be applied in computer simulation program to determine if the movement of the material are going to over-stress any bend area of the part. An area usually overlooked is the finish on the part. The finish has to be able to maintain adhesion without flaking off. Our experience allows us to make the best finishing and plating decisions for our customers, determined specifically by the end application of the product.
