Profile: Atlantic Precision Spring, Inc. specializes in long-run and short-run manufacturing of fourslide parts, metal stampings, wire springs, wire forms & sub-assemblies. The industries served include medical, electronics, aerospace, marine, automotive & military. We are an ISO 9001:2000 certified company. We can provide reel-to-reel stampings to help improve the production efficiencies. We have full control over all aspects of the process, from print to prototype, to production. We produce precision metal stampings, electrical contacts (such as battery contacts), flat springs, wire compression, extension and torsion springs, and wireforms through conventional means. We can produce metal stampings utilizing progressive die, and reel-to-reel equipment. We can manufacture precision metal stampings, contacts & flat springs from a wide variety of materials, including aluminum metal, high & low carbon steel metal, stainless steel metal, beryllium copper metal, phosphor bronze metal, brass metal, nickel metal, and bimetal stampings. We manufacture compression springs, torsion springs, extension springs and wire forms from .006" to .187", in both round & shaped wire. Compression springs are open-coil helical springs that resist a compressive force that is applied axially. Their shape can be cylindrical, conical, barrel shaped, hourglass or in any combination necessary for the application. Torsion springs are usually close wound. They reduce in coil diameter, and increase in body length when they are deflected. They offer resistance to externally applied torque.
