  1. Clips

    Clips
    Flat springs are so called since they are made from flat strip steel. Emmotts produce a wide variety of this type of product for all manner of applications throughout industry. Most applications involve gripping or flexing. The range of shapes and sizes are almost endless and bounded only by the imagination. Emmotts have the ability to produce all manner of this type of product using techniques which are dependent upon the quantity required. A huge array of standard tooling enables us to satisfy lower quantity needs without having to produce purpose made tooling, whilst for larger quantities we have our own in-house tooling section so that these can be produced economically. Material thicknesses from 0.05mm to 6.50mm Design assistance available In-house tooling section Wide range of materials, spring steel, stainless steel, mild steel, copper alloys and exotic nickel alloys Standard tooling for small quantities
  2. Clock Type Springs

    Clock Type Springs
    These are so named from their original use for storing energy from which clocks were driven. They have since found many other applications, particularly in re-winding and counterbalancing systems. This type of product essential come in three forms, open coiled where only a few turns are required, close coiled, and close coiled pre-stressed where a greater number of turns are needed. The choice of which depends on several factors so please contact out Technical Team for guidance on this. Strip widths from 2.00mm to 150mm Strip thicknesses from 0.05mm to 6.5mm Wide range of materials from Spring steel , stainless steel, phosphor bronze, beryllium copper, and exotic nickel alloys Design assistance available Standard parts for Horological trade
  3. Compression Springs

    Compression Springs
    Emmotts supply and manufacture a large range of the more traditional springs such as compression, tension and torsion springs. Modern plant and equipment ensure product quality and competitiveness whilst ensuring that hand skill are still available to produce shorter runs when required. Emmotts also have the capabilities to manufacture wire forms and supply a wide range of industries. Wire diameters up to 25mm Wide range of materials Design assistance available Long or short production runs
  4. Constant Force Springs

    Constant Force Springs
    The spring derives its name from its ability to extend through its working range whilst being maintained in any position by the same force. These are essentially a tightly wound coil of spring steel or stainless steel with the inner end being fitted over a shaft whilst the outer end is extended. The natural curvature across the material width then produces a constant retraction force. This type of spring can also be used in a motor arrangement where the spring is wound in operation onto a smaller drum. By doing this it is possible to produce a constant torque motor or rewind system which can be used for counterbalancing. Other applications include fast acting fire dampers in air conditioning ducts to springs being used to push product forward in point of sale devices. Strip widths up to 150mm Strip thicknesses from 0.05mm to 1.00mm Materials: Stainless steel and Spring steel Design assistance available Standard parts available
