Unlike compression springs, which resist being compressed, extension springs are designed to resist being stretched. 🌀 As you can see, their resting position is tightly coiled, and when force is applied, they elongate, storing energy as they stretch. How many applications can you think of that use an extension spring? Let us know in the comments. 👇 #ExtensionSpring #Springs #SpringDesign #SpringDesigners #DesignEngineers

Spring manufacturing involves various steps to make sure each spring is safe and reliable. 🤝 After the coiling and stress relieving process has been carried out, the spring may need to be ground. This will create a flat load bearing surface on the ends of the spring, improving stability, distributing loads evenly, and ensuring optimal performance in their final application. #SpringGrinding #Grinding #Springs #SpringDesign #SpringDesigners #SpringManufacturing
