Yes, EWES helps with all types of assembly that include a spring.
We assemble both small and large series, manually, semi-automatically or fully automatically. EWES may not be best known for supplying assembled products, but we have actually been doing so since the 1980s!
Today we are increasingly automating high-volume assembly at home in Sweden, but we can also offer assembly of smaller series, both in Sweden and at our subsidiaries in Europe and Asia.

No, actually that is not always the case. For very small volumes it is often cheaper to choose a spring from the EWES standard range, but from around a hundred units it usually pays to let EWES tailor the spring. Standard springs are usually best suited to very early prototypes, or when a designer “just wants to test” a function. A spring is a design element, not a fastener, and is usually best when it is designed to customer specification.

EWES can produce really small volumes, from just a few springs – e.g. only two. For small volumes, a set-up cost is added.

Stainless steel is not always the best choice. Zinc-aluminium can often be a better and more cost-effective material choice than stainless steel. Which material you choose depends on how the spring will be used. A common belief is that stainless material is stronger, but it is exactly the opposite – we usually say that the force is around 10% weaker in a stainless material.

When it comes to pure production without secondary operations, EWES holds its own well in Sweden, since raw material prices are largely the same for all markets. If, on the other hand, the spring is to be further processed, it may be better to use one of our other companies around the world. Where we choose to produce is decided by where the customer is, but also from a sustainability and environmental perspective.
