Manufacturing Specifications

Design & Prototyping
Recent advances in CNC manufacturing technology have significantly lowered the cost of creating prototypes of complex wire form parts. The Newcomb engineering staff gladly assists customers with part design, and we often produce prototypes to help make sure components will fit into space requirements. Modern prototypes often can be changed and reproduced in minutes, saving time, lowering costs and avoiding design errors.

To make sure a component’s dimensions fall within predetermined tolerances, wire forms often are stress-relieved during production. This process improves the reliability of Newcomb’s parts in your products while streamlining the manufacturing process and lowering total production costs.

Material Shapes
As with all Newcomb Spring parts, we produce wire forms that are custom manufactured to your exact specifications. We can produce wire forms out of almost any material shape, although most often forms are produced from:

  • rolled round wire
  • flattened round wire
  • rectangular material
  • shaped material
  • tempered wire when components are designed to store and release energy

Order Information
As with all Newcomb Spring-produced parts, we can custom manufacture any wire form to fit your needs. For more than 125 years we have offered great prices, high quality and total customer satisfaction.
