What is wave spring? What are the special features of Lispring wave springs?

2024-06-18

Wave spring, referred to as wave spring, is an elastic element with several peaks and valleys on a thin metal ring. It is usually made of high-quality spring steel such as 65Mn, 60Si2MnA, 50CrVA, 0Cr17Ni7Al, or SUS304, and undergoes specific heat treatment methods. Its hardness is generally controlled between HRC44 and 55, and its surface is blackened, which has good elasticity.

The main reasons for choosing wave springs are as follows:

1.Saving axial space: Wave springs are composed of sine waves. Although they have a helical structure, they can provide greater spring stiffness under the same conditions and meet load requirements within a smaller stroke range, thus reducing the overall size of components and providing design possibilities for product lightweighting and compactness.

2.Providing precise and controllable force requirements: The spring stiffness output by the sine wave of the wave spring is linear, so the load at a specified working height can be accurately predicted. For products with high requirements for precision and reliability of working height loads, this characteristic of wave springs can well meet the requirements of precision machinery for product consistency and reliability.

3.Large load capacity: Wave springs have relatively large load capacity and are suitable for various applications with high load requirements. At the same time, they also have good tensile strength and can withstand more complex stress states to meet various special application needs.

4.High reliability: The design structure of wave springs is simple, and the production process is skilled. They have high reliability and safety during use, and problems such as loosening, shortening, and fracture will not occur after long-term use.

5.Easy installation: Wave springs usually adopt shapes such as rings, straight bars, and strips, which are convenient and simple to install and can be quickly installed in various mechanical equipment or electronic products.

In addition, wave springs also have characteristics such as a wide range of stiffness, strong buffering and shock absorption capabilities, and large deformation energy per unit volume of material. Their typical applications include aerospace, precision machinery, hydraulic sealing, and high-end motors.
