SmartSpring con il suo sensore può essere applicato a tutti gli elementi con caratteristiche a molla, e grazie al quale è possibile rilevare online le variazioni di deformazione e comunicare la durata del componente per pianificare la manutenzione in modo proattivo.



(PDF in lingua inglese) Product Range

Development, design, calculation and production of precision metal parts with spring characteristics.

Series size
Prototypes (1-50 pieces), small series (100-10'000 pieces) and large series up to 5 million pieces

Material
Dimensions from 0.1 to 35 mm, all spring steels and special alloys

Production
Maximum added value because all important processes, such as coiling, wire bending, punching and stamping as well as secondary processes are available in-house

Product innovation

Vision of the I-Spring®

Digitalisation is omnipresent and is or will be introduced in nearly every part of the industry. Some Benefits of this development are:

- easier and quicker access to relevant data
- remote data access possible
- networking of data and using artificial intelligence for problem solving

Develop an indepent working system to constantly monitor elements with spring behaviour during operation and determine essential characteristics to an online platform.

Structure of the Sensor

Functions and structure of the system
- Monitoring: deformation of the spring; ambient parameters: e.g. temperature

- Local data storage: measurement data

- Data Download: wireless (e.g. via BLE)

- External evaluation of data: on mobile device (e.g. Smartphone); in superordinate control; assignment of the measurment data

- Dimension: ca. 40 × 10 × 10 mm (prototype); miniturization for series parts
