Springs play a critical role in the functionality of sensors. They are used in various pressure sensors, accelerometers, and strain gauges. Springs are designed to measure pressure, force, and displacement changes by converting mechanical motion into electrical signals. These signals can then be interpreted to provide accurate readings for various applications, including automotive, aerospace, and medical industries.

Springs in sensors provide several advantages, including sensitivity and accuracy improvements, range extension, and overload protection. The sensitivity and accuracy improvement is achieved through high-quality materials with precise geometries that can detect even small changes in force or displacement with high resolution. In addition, technical springs help extend the range within which a sensor can operate by providing elastic deformation capabilities that allow for measurements beyond their normal operating range without damage.
