Engineered Testing Equipment
Spring Testing Machine, Built to Your Load and Cycle Range
A compression and tension spring tester sized to your spring geometry and load range, with automatic data capture and pass/fail evaluation built in — no manual dial reading, no handwritten logs.
What It Does
Consistent Spring Testing, Without Manual Timing or Reading
A spring testing machine loads a spring to a set point — or through a full cycle — and measures the resulting force and deflection. Done manually, this depends entirely on an operator’s timing and how carefully they read a dial gauge under load, which means two operators testing the same spring can get two different answers. Our machines remove that variability: load and deflection are captured automatically and evaluated against your tolerance the same way, every time.
- Compression and tension spring testing on the same platform
- Automatic load and deflection capture at every reading
- Pass/fail evaluated against your tolerance, applied consistently
Matched to Your Spring
Load Range and Fixture Set Up Around What You Actually Test
Spring specs vary widely — wire diameter, free length, coil count, and expected load range are different for every part, and a load cell sized for a heavy suspension spring is the wrong tool for a light latch spring. Rather than fitting your spring to whichever fixture a catalog machine happens to ship with, we size the load cell, fixture, and travel range to your spring’s actual geometry and force range.
- Load cell range matched to your spring’s expected force — not oversized or undersized
- Fixtures sized to your coil diameter and free length
- Configured for single-point testing or full cycle-count durability runs
Included as Standard, Not an Add-On
Every Spring Tester We Build Includes Automated Data Capture
A spring tester without digital capture depends on someone reading a gauge at the right instant and writing the number down — which is exactly where inconsistent QC records come from. Every machine we build ships with software that captures load and deflection automatically, evaluates it against your tolerance, and logs the result — so “automatic” and “computerized” aren’t two different products, they’re what a spring tester from us does by default.
Live Testing
- Real-time load-deflection graphing while the test runs
- Automatic pass/fail evaluation against your tolerance band
- Cycle-by-cycle logging for durability and fatigue testing
Records & Reporting
- Digital test records replace handwritten log sheets
- Exportable history for QC review or customer documentation
- Consistent pass/fail logic across every operator and every shift
Consistent Results
Removes operator-to-operator variation in manual testing
Sized to Your Spring
Load cell and fixture matched to your spring’s geometry
Software Included
Automated capture and pass/fail built in, not optional
Cycle Testing
Configurable for fatigue and life-cycle durability runs
Built For Your Application
| Spring Type | Typical Use Case |
|---|---|
| Compression springs | Automotive suspension, valve springs, industrial machinery |
| Tension springs | Latches, trampolines, garage door assemblies |
| Cyclic/durability testing | Fatigue and life-cycle verification for production QC |
Note: Load range, fixture size, and cycle count are worked out from your spring specification — share your part drawing or a sample and we’ll recommend the right configuration.
From Your Spring Spec to a Working Machine
Requirement Discussion: You share your spring’s dimensions, expected load range, and whether you need single-point or cycle testing.
Configuration: We size the load cell and fixture to match, and set up tolerance bands and report format for your QC process.
Build & Calibration: The machine is built and calibrated before delivery.
Installation & Handover: Setup at your site, operator walkthrough, and confirmation the data capture is working as expected.
Ongoing Support: Calibration and servicing available after delivery.

Send us your spring’s dimensions and expected load range — we’ll work out the right machine for it, data capture included.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can the same machine test both compression and tension springs? +
Yes — fixtures can be configured for either type; let us know which (or both) you need during setup.
What load range can the machine handle? +
The load cell is sized to your spring’s expected force range — share your spring specs and we’ll confirm the right capacity.
Can it run cycle/durability testing, not just single-point tests? +
Yes — it can be configured to run repeated load cycles for fatigue and life-cycle testing, with results logged automatically at each cycle.
Does it flag failed parts automatically? +
Yes — pass/fail tolerances are set to your specification, and the system flags any result outside that band without manual review of every reading.
Is the data capture software included, or a separate option? +
Included as standard — automatic load/deflection capture and pass/fail evaluation aren’t a paid add-on.
