🔧 The Engineering Challenge: "We just need a spring."
😳

It may sound simple, but let’s break it down. “Just a spring” can involve:

➡️ A constant force throughout the entire stroke
➡️ Enduring millions of cycles
➡️ Precise torque at a specific angle
➡️ A material that can withstand harsh environments
➡️ Custom mounting configurations
➡️ And about 47 discussions about what “small” really means!

Innovation in engineering isn’t always about complexity. Sometimes, it's about crafting one piece of metal for a very specific purpose—and then ensuring it performs that same task consistently, time and time again. 😅

And that’s what makes it so rewarding! 😍 Celebrating over 175 years of SPRINGS MADE BETTER™!

A history for National Aviation Month: during the World Wars, John Evans' Sons manufactured precision springs for oxygen equipment control valves used by military aviators. ✈️

That same dedication to precision lives on today in our Helical Shock & Vibration Isolators, built to protect sensitive aerospace equipment from extreme vibration and shock.

More than 175 years of adapting to the needs of aviation and beyond.

John Evans' Sons manufactures constant force and spiral torsion springs in Lansdale, PA for medical device, aerospace, and defense OEMs.

Some are even performing surgery!

Today they are in Boston, in a display case, at Booth #314.

MEDevice Boston opens at 10 a.m. Four brands from the Lesjöfors network are sharing one booth: John Evans' Sons, Plymouth Spring, Tollman Spring, and Lesjöfors.

Between us: constant force, spiral torsion, power, compression, extension, torsion, micro springs, wire forms, and stampings.

America's First Springmaker since 1850, certified to ISO 13485:2016, AS9100D and ISO 9001:2015.

Let's talk design. We enjoy it!

MEDevice Boston is Wednesday! 😀

Our booth will be Booth 314, the table full of parts smaller than your thumbnail.

We are heading up as part of Lesjöfors, which means one booth, one conversation, and access to a spring capability set that spans four brands and 50+ manufacturing sites globally.

We manufacture constant force springs, spiral torsion springs, power springs, flat springs, and mechanical assemblies for medical device OEMs.

Certified to ISO 13485:2016, ISO 9001:2015, and AS9100D.

Come talk to us if you are working on:
➡️ Drug delivery mechanisms that need identical actuation force from first dose to last
➡️ Surgical instruments where the spring cannot be the variable
➡️ A prototype that needs to become a production part without a redesign
➡️ A device that has outgrown its current supplier's tolerance range

Bring the print. Bring the napkin sketch. Bring the problem you have not solved yet.

That is a battery contact stamping next to a 1998 dime, and the dime is winning on size by a comfortable margin. 🔋

John Evans' Sons manufactures precision metal stampings and flat springs in Lansdale, Pennsylvania, for battery contacts and other small electrical components. 🏭

The thing about parts this size is that the tolerance does not get smaller with the part. A few thousandths off on a bracket is nothing. A few thousandths off here and it does not make contact at all.

Which means everything gets decided in the tooling, long before the first part drops.
Making one is a good afternoon. Making four hundred thousand that are identical is the job.

176 years in, we are still measuring in thousandths.

Here's a question most people never think about: when an aircraft component moves, how do you make sure it pushes back with exactly the same force every single time?

Answer: Constant force springs!

John Evans' Sons manufactures constant force springs in Lansdale, Pennsylvania, for aerospace, medical device, and defense applications. Unlike a standard coil spring, a constant force spring delivers near-uniform load across its full range of travel. The force at the beginning matches the force at the end.

For engineers, that removes a whole variable from the design. For the aircraft, it means a part that behaves the same on day one and thousands of flights later.

175 years of building to spec. AS9100D and ISO 9001:2015 certified. ✈️

Why use a constant force spring instead of a conventional coil?

Here is the mechanical reason that matters.

An extension spring builds force as it stretches. In a window balance, that means the sash fights you at the bottom of its travel and drifts at the top. The user experiences that as a window that never quite behaves.

A constant force spring delivers essentially the same force throughout its extension. The sash weighs the same to the operator at two inches as it does at fully open, because the counterbalance does not change with position.

That single property is why the application exists the way it does.

John Evans' Sons designs and manufactures constant force springs and has produced well over 100 million window balance products.

If your window balance program needs a partner who has been solving this exact problem since 1850, let's talk.
