Springs & Things is an ideal source for prototypes

Springs & Things has worked hard to become the go-to source for customers in need of a prototype spring or wire form. The company has expanded its capabilities, gained experience and developed a team of knowledgeable professionals to maintain this reputation. The result is an exemplary performance when it comes to meeting its customers' prototyping needs.

Prototyping capabilities

Springs & Things has the manufacturing and design capabilities to handle the most demanding prototype requirements. For instance, the company can perform load and extension testing, as well as more demanding tests in a lab setting. According to Springs & Things, this capability can be used to enhance the design of prototypes.

“We use the results of load tests to redesign parts that are close to what a customer needs, but need a slight adjustment to achieve optimal performance.”

The company’s ability to offer a variety of materials, special coatings and highly customized packaging also helps it accommodate the unique needs of customers. The prototypes the company can create include springs, stampings, wire forms and a wide range of other critical components. Just some of the styles of prototype springs the company can make include flat, compression, extension, torsion and spiral torsion.

Experience

Springs & Things has a long history of meeting customer requirements for highly challenging prototypes. It often works with entrepreneurs who have an invention but require a custom component to finish their design.

For example, one customer required a spring for an innovative fish lure design. Springs & Things consulted with the client, tested a variety of prototypes, and developed a spring to meet the need and minimize manufacturing cost.

That excellent track record in prototyping is due in part to the company’s knowledgeable employees. The special order department is staffed by design and sales professionals who draw on more than 60 years of experience in the industry.
