Wave springs have the advantage of saving space and weight when used to replace compression springs
Unlike compression springs, wave springs have a lower market penetration, and they are not considered a solution to problems of space and cost. At RPK Group, our engineers work together with our customers’ engineers to explain the virtues of these products and reduce the lack of knowledge that exists surrounding them. For example, we have had success designing for applications with dynamic and relaxation requirements, as well as axial loads, to ensure linear opening of hydraulic valves.
In addition, we have promoted cost saving programs, replacing compression springs with wave springs, making significant savings in weight and cost, and increasing the demand for materials. Due to the rising demand for flat materials, our internal rolling line is growing steadily, rolling tons of material annually in order to provide a fast cost-effective response for our customers. An ideal solution for engineers looking for space-saving solutions for the most demanding designs.
