By totally re-evaluating the spring coiling process, Springform is able through state-of-the-art technology to control the spring geometry, not by the usual cams and gears, but by the operator directly inputting the spring’s diameter and pitch

The spreadsheets, which are factory-loaded into the motion control unit, precisely define the pitch and diameter measurements of the spring as each millimetre of wire is processed. Spring set-up time is therefore reduced to seconds rather than hours, with in-built consistency.

Over the years, the machine design has been steadily refined and improved upon, based on our experience in the production environment, initially at our sister company Elson & Robbins and now at our installations on 3 continents; (North America, Mainland Europe and Africa.) Our machine designs are all patent protected, but offered for sale without royalty agreements or territorial restrictions.

Springform’s coilers now run fully automatically at up to 100 springs per minute. They can be designed to produce a range of spring heights from 8cm up to 25cms, in a range of wire gauges from 1.3mm to 2mm with very little downtime for tooling changes.
