Wave spring washer
BORRELLY Wave Springs offer the unique advantage of space savings when used to replace coil springs. By reducing spring operating height, wave spring washers also produce a decrease in the spring cavity. With a smaller assembly size and less material used in the manufacturing process, a cost savings is realized.
Wave spring washers operate as load bearing devices. They take up play and compensate for dimensional variations within assemblies. A virtually unlimited range of forces can be produced whereby loads build either gradually or abruptly to reach a predetermined working height. This establishes a precise spring rate in which load is proportional to deflection. Functional requirements are necessary for both dynamic and static spring applications. Special performance characteristics are individually built into each spring to satisfy a variety of precise operating conditions.
Typically, a wave spring will occupy an extremely small area for the amount of work it performs. The use of this product is demanded, but not limited to tight axial and radial space constraints.
High class manufacturing quality : wave spring washers
Borrelly specialises in designing and manufacturing spring washers, including wave spring washers and special stackings. We offer our customers recognised expertise and a worldwide reputation in our field.
Non pre-stressed ball bearing : Internal clearance in ball bearings is essential but generates noise and vibrations.
Pre-stressed ball bearing : Using spring washers to take up internal clearance, reduces considerably vibrations and also decreases
bearing noise. This has a beneficial effect on bearing service life.
Spring washer applications :
Borrelly designs and develops very high quality technical products. Its spring washers are round elastic parts which can store a maximal amount of energy for their unit volume and which are ideal for highly complex problems.
Example for wave spring washers :
Problem to be solved: Handle pre-stress in a high speed turbine.
Constraints: Cryogenic operating temperatures, particularly small overall dimensions, very tight load tolerance, zero hysteresis.
Solution: Beryllium copper waved spring washers.
Borrelly added value: Characterisation of the design parameters and parameters for manufacturing at 20°C, to achieve a result that fully met the customer’s requirements at 50 K, right from the first prototype.
