Spring-Loaded
Devices are alternative solutions to standard springs used within varying
fixtures and manufacturing machines. More specifically, spring loaded devices
consist of a spring surrounded by a threaded framework or body which also
includes a plunger. This plunger or in some cases ball, helps ensure accuracy,
repeatability & efficiency. There are several types of spring-loaded
devices all which have specific benefits depending on the unique application.
In machining, Spring-loaded devices are preferred over traditional springs because
of their accuracy, repeatability, ease of installation and minimal spring
compression.
