fasteners & spring production

The revolution continues

Hot on the heels of the ‘Rotary Cut’ and ‘Graphic Programming’, Simplex-Rapid has developed another revolutionary idea to meet the highest quality standard of the spring industry.

Thanks to the new ‘Initial Tension Control Device’ it will be possible – even for an un-experienced operator – to overcome all the usual and difficult-to-solve problems related to the initial tension control of any compression spring (ie the different amount of initial tension between the first and the last coil). The revolutionary idea is so effective and easy to use because it consists of a single axis motion that can be programmed automatically in the same exact way for all spring types (cylindrical, conical, biconical) independently from wire sizes or spring dimensions. With this feature it will be possible to control and vary, at any desired point of the wire feed, the amount of initial tension in order to increment or decrement it according to the spring requirement. No more time consuming and frustrating compromises, just perfect springs in a matter of seconds! The Initial Tension Control Device is available as an option on all coilers of the MC-line.
