Application and benefits of titanium spring

By huanggs
Spring is a kind of special part. It is widely used in various fields of national production and life, such as cars, motorcycles, bicycles and other vehicles, computers, clocks, light switches, toys, clips and other daily necessities. Spring mainly plays the role of shock absorption, energy storage. Titanium Tube Manufacturer says that in recent years, titanium alloys have become the current choice of spring materials because of their high specific strength, low elastic modulus, and excellent corrosion resistance. Compared with steel springs, titanium springs have the advantages of light weight, small size and elevated resonance frequency. The density and elastic modulus of titanium springs are only half of that of steel springs, but the strength is nearly the same as that of steel springs. Because of these advantages, titanium springs can be designed to be smaller in diameter, fewer turns and considerably less weight than steel springs in practical applications. Titanium spring mainly includes compression titanium spring, titanium stretching spring, titanium torsion spring, titanium spring bending and so on. Titanium spring production is simple, according to the general cylinder spring can be made of various types of load, simple structure of titanium spring. The material prepared by the invention has strong corrosion resistance, high elastic limit and excellent impact toughness. Titanium spring manufacturing is commonly divided into cold disk method and hot coil method. Titanium spring mainly uses titanium alloy wire method. As far as springs are concerned, extreme strength is the most important performance requirement for materials, therefore high strength β titanium alloy Ti-3Al-8V-6Cr-4Mo-4Zr and Timetal LCB (Ti-6.8Mo-4.5Fe-1.5Al) alloys are the best materials for manufacturing springs. Titanium springs are already used in Formula One cars, racing motorcycles and the most advanced Ferraris. Titanium alloy springs have been used for many years in the aerospace and chemical industry.
