The wire diameter of a spring is the single most critical dimension that determines its load capacity, rate, stress levels, and physical envelope. To choose the correct wire diamet
The direct difference is the fate of the removed material: blanking produces a finished part (the blank) and discards the scrap (the hole), piercing produces a hole and discards th
Spring rate tolerance is the allowable deviation from the specified force-deflection ratio, typically expressed as a percentage of the nominal rate. For most custom springs, standa
CNC machining titanium is challenging but highly achievable, with standard tolerances of +/- 0.005 inches (0.13 mm) and precision tolerances down to +/- 0.002 inches (0.05 mm). The
Metal stamping surface finish refers to the measurable texture and cosmetic condition of a stamped part after forming, which typically ranges from a raw mill finish at 0.8 µm Ra to
