Springs are manufactured from a wide range of flat stock and round wires ranging from 002" to .350" in diameter and are produced according to customer specifications. CSS offers spring prototyping and complete new product development services. Low volume, short-run manufacturing is available, as well as higher volume production and warehousing.

CSS will also showcase its metal stamping expertise in the medical device arena, which includes prototyping and high speed progressive die stamping from 30-300 tons, modular die options and short run stamping. CSS has vastly expanded its machining capabilities and machines critical features into many parts supplied to the medical industry. The company has supplied stampings for hand held surgical devices, endoscopic clip appliers, suturing devices, and staple removers. Drive channels, jaws, surgical staples, and titanium clips are some of the components produced for these assemblies.

FAULHABER MICROMO - Impressive accuracy through the latest chip technology

With the launch of the IEP3, FAULHABER expands its product line with an incremental encoder which, thanks to the latest chip technology, achieves a very high resolution and accuracy. With a diameter of just 8 mm, the IEP3 is very lightweight and compact yet still offers a resolution of up to 10,000 lines per revolution - made possible by the latest chip technology with high interpolation. In the standard version, the resolution is freely programmable from 1 - 4,096 lines per revolution. Moreover, the chip technology that is used ensures a high positional accuracy of typically 0.3 °m as well as a high repeatability of typically 0.05 °m thanks to accuracy compensation.
