In electrical engineering and the electrical industry, technical springs such as leaf springs, shaped springs, flat springs, compression springs and contact springs are used in a wide variety of functions and are installed in almost all electrical devices: they are very often used as flexible fastening parts, locking springs, vibration-inhibiting connecting parts or current-conducting contact points. They are also used as storage elements for force and travel compensation or as counter and contact pressure. Contact springs are used, for example, for medium and low voltage transmission in lighting fixtures, lamps and automatic circuit breakers or as battery contacts. Spring clips are used as installation material for cable routing in solar and photovoltaic systems.

Basically, electrical engineering deals with all technical devices that are powered by electrical energy. The main areas of electrical engineering include drive technology, building technology, medical technology as well as electrical appliances from trade, household and consumer electronics, lighting technology and lamp technology, building technology and security systems, electrical installation, medical technology and much more.

Range of technical springs for electrical engineering

Gutekunst Formfedern specializes in the manufacture of individual leaf springs, shaped springs, flat springs and contact springs made from flat material and has been producing these for 30 years in any desired shape and property for the respective electrotechnical application. Whether as a simple flat contact or an elaborately shaped contact and form spring - it is important that the technical spring fulfills its function in a stable and optimal way.

Gutekunst Formfedern manufactures and develops leaf springs, shaped springs, flat springs and contact springs in sample production, small quantities and large series. There are practically no limits to the design of individual technical springs for electrical engineering. Gutekunst also has a large selection of conductive spring materials and conductive surface treatments specially tailored to the requirements of electrical engineering.
