The extension type of Constant Force Spring represents the most basic, yet most versatile, type of constant force spring. It is a pre-stressed flat strip of spring material which is formed into virtually constant radius coils around itself or on a drum. When the strip is extended (deflected) the inherent stress resists the loading force, the same as a common extension spring, but at a nearly constant (zero) rate. A constant torque is obtained when the outer end of the spring is attached to another spool and caused to wind in either the reverse or same direction as it is originally wound. The full rated load of the spring is reached after being deflected to a length equal to 1.25 times its diameter. Thereafter, it maintains a relatively constant force regardless of extension length. The load is basically determined by the thickness and width of the material and the diameter of the coil. Lee Spring offers Stock Constant Force Springs in four Life Cycle ranges: 2500, 4000, 13000 and 25000. Each spring is a roll of high yield Type 301 Stainless Steel strip exerting a nearly constant restraining force to resist uncoiling. We can also provide Custom Constant Force Springs, made to your specification.

Our design department develops and optimises your technical drawings with regard to our production standards. Our designers are happy to provide you with technical, testing and advisory support. We optimise your components and assemblies and develop technical solutions together with you.

From design and detail engineering to project execution, a specialized team develops your machinery & equipment. The focus of our design work ranges from classic mechanical and plant engineering to the development of tools, devices or special machines for a wide variety of industrial requirements. Our engineers benefit from our extensive manufacturing spectrum and can identify cost reduction potentials at a very early stage and incorporate them into the design.

We are particularly qualified and certified in container construction. With high-tech equipment such as our plasma tap hole welding systems, we achieve top quality that is as economical as it is long-lasting. The same applies to mixing and stirring vessels as well as tanks in many sizes. All processes are monitored by welding engineers and precisely documented by our own QA teams.

Ottemeier is a much sought-after specialist for the fast and reliable manufacturing of individual parts and small serial products, with contract machining for tools, fixtures and machinery components in the fields of milling and wire EDM. If in-house manufacturing should be out of the question, then we can provider our customers a convincing solution. We mill, measure and erode from the planning stage up to, and including, the finished component. Economical, precise and perfect. The spectrum of milling machines ranges from universal milling machines through to machining centres to 5-axis gantry milling centres with a table load-bearing capacity of 30 tons. For contract EDM, Ottemeier utilises modern CNC wire EDM centres which guarantee high-precision machining of components, also for large-dimensioned workpieces up to a height of 650 mm. With a 3-coordinate measuring machine, large parts up to a weight of 25 tons can be accurately measured and this with a measurement uncertainty of only 5 my+L/300 mm.

First-class processes for single and repeat production, all process steps including project planning, machining, welding, painting, assembly and quality assurance from one source. Compensation of fluctuating demand capacities within your own company. Highly-qualified personnel, comprehensive machinery, always up-to-date certificates and approvals

• Design, development and conception of the control cabinet in Solidworks 3D • Layout of the electrical and compressed air components for the control cabinet • Installation and commissioning of the control cabinet • Production of the documentation components • Preperation of the relevant inspection certificates • Generation of the required circuit diagrams (electrical compressed air etc.) • Quality assurance per the DIN EN ISO 9001 standard

What loads will the control cabinet be exposed to later? Where will it be used? Indoors or outdoors? Under what, perhaps extreme, conditions? Should the enclosure solution be mobile? Do certain types of protection or standards have to be met? Should the enclosure system be flexibly expandable? As an experienced enclosure manufacturer, we realize time and again that our solutions are a bit like superheroes. Each one has to meet individual requirements at its place of use and avert specific dangers. We love these challenges and meet them successfully - with clever design details, optimum choice of materials and robust workmanship. We know exactly how to find the right answers - SCHIMSCHA CREATES THE SOLUTION!
