Affordable and High-Quality Spring Pins in Westerville, OH
At H.G. Schneider Company, we manufacture high-quality UNIKIX™ Spring Pins in Westerville, OH. Our products’ one-piece design promises ease of use and is perfect for use as ejectors, lifters, shedders, and kickers. Our pins and springs can be cut to length as needed.
For maximum life, pre-load on the spring should not exceed 1/8″, and pin travel should be limited to 1/16″.
Cut-Off Die
After a sheet metal part has been cut off, a UNIKIX® Spring Pin can eject it. The Spring on the right shows the sheet metal being pushed away from the stripper. This action can prevent stamping fluid surface tension from negatively affecting the discarded sheet metal piece.
Notch Punches
UNIKIX® Spring Pins can prevent slug pulling. In operation, this example shows the spring pins pushing the slugs away from the ends of the punches. This can prevent the slugs from being pulled upward out of the matrix when the die opens. The spring pins eject the slugs by overcoming the stamping-fluid surface tension, which can cause the slugs to adhere to the ends of the punches.
Switch Delay
A UNIKIX® Spring Pin can delay the actuation of an electrical switch. In operation, this example shows the spring pin releasing the switch after the mold has been opened. The rod remains in contact with the switch and applies pressure to it when the mold is partially or completely closed. The switch can be part of an automated system (not shown) that waits for the mold to completely open before attempting to remove the part from the mold.
