Testimonials
Electronic Wire Form Manufacturers
Springs might be hidden from sight, but they’re essential to the way modern electronics work. From the vibration alert in your smartphone to the battery holder in a remote control, these tiny components make everyday technology reliable.
At Airedale Springs, we understand that behind every device is a team of engineers and manufacturers who need components they can trust.
That’s why we combine decades of expertise with advanced CNC machinery to create springs and wire forms that meet the tightest tolerances, perform under pressure, and last the lifetime of the product.
But reliability isn’t just about performance, it’s about trust. Our customers know they can rely on us for consistent quality, honest advice and sustainable manufacturing. With over 80% of our energy supplied by solar power and all our springs made from recyclable metals, we’re helping shape an industry that values responsibility as much as innovation.
Why Springs Matter in Electronics
Every electronic device is composed of countless small components that work together. Springs and wire forms are some of the most vital, ensuring products remain safe, functional and user-friendly.
- Battery contacts and holders: Ensuring secure connections.
- Buttons and switches: Delivering thousands of reliable clicks.
- Sensors: Supporting life-saving medical devices and safety systems.
- Household appliances: Enabling smooth opening, closing and resistance.
In consumer electronics, springs ensure your gadgets stay lightweight, durable and responsive. In industrial or specialised electronics, they provide strength, conductivity, and resilience in challenging environments, such as automotive systems, aerospace technology, and defence equipment.
Without springs, the devices we depend on every day, from laptops to medical monitors, would fail to function as intended.
Whether for consumer electronics or specialist equipment, our springs keep technology dependable.
Choosing the Right Materials
Different applications demand different properties. That’s why material selection is critical in electronics manufacturing.
- Copper alloys: Highly conductive, ideal for connectors and touchscreens.
- Carbon spring steel: Strong and durable for high-stress environments.
- Nickel alloys: Resistant to heat and corrosion in demanding conditions
For example, copper alloys are often used in battery contacts and connectors where conductivity is crucial, while carbon spring steel may be chosen for appliance components that require withstanding constant use. In high-temperature or corrosive environments, nickel alloys provide long-lasting reliability. Our team works closely with design engineers to ensure the best material is selected for both performance and cost-effectiveness, reducing the risk of failure and extending product lifespan.
We’ll work with you to select the right material for your design, balancing strength, conductivity, durability and cost-effectiveness.
Precision Manufacturing for Modern Electronics
As devices become smaller, their components must follow suit. Our advanced CNC technology allows us to manufacture springs with wire diameters as small as 0.15mm, ensuring precision even in the most compact spaces.
- Design support and prototyping: Checking feasibility before production.
- High-accuracy CNC coiling and wire forming: Deliver consistent results.
- Quality assurance: Meeting strict ISO 9001 standards.
Our investment in automation and advanced software means we can quickly adapt to evolving design requirements. From initial prototypes to full-scale production runs, every spring is manufactured with the highest level of repeatability and accuracy.
This ensures seamless integration into your products, whether you need thousands of identical components for mass-market electronics or smaller, specialised batches for niche applications.
Every part we make is crafted to fit, function and endure, ensuring your products remain dependable throughout their lifespan.
Sustainable Electronics Components
We believe that innovation and responsibility go hand in hand. Over 400 solar panels power more than 80% of our energy needs, and all our springs are made from 100% recyclable metals.
