Compensation springs
Compensation springs compensation springs Compensation springs are used to reduce the noise and vibration levels of electric motors, increasing strength, duration, and overall performance. Their function is to compensate for axial tolerances of the bearing, avoiding the slackening of the balls in the races as though they were shock absorbers. Production AFA manufactures standard and, […]
