Wave spring is a kind of thin elastic metal element composed of many wave peaks and troughs, which is called wave spring for short. Wave spring is widely used in mechanical manufacturing, petrochemical industry, hydraulic equipment and so on. The single-layer wave spring is an elastic element with several peaks and troughs on a metal ring, while the multi-layer wave spring appears to be composed of many single-layer wave springs similar to the cylindrical spiral spring.
Wave spring is widely used, but when it is used, because of some reasons, it will lead to wave spring failure, which will affect the normal operation of the equipment. Then what are the reasons for the failure of the wave spring? The following is a brief analysis by the wave spring manufacturer Yangzhou Tianshi disc spring factory. The reasons for the failure of the wave spring generally include: first, the material for making the spring, the spring made of the material with surface strengthening treatment, has a longer service life than the untreated one, and the defective material will also affect the service life of the spring, so the spring is fatigued in advance.
