An improved unitary one-piece head suspension assembly (28), combining a mounting arm (32), a load beam (30) and a read/write head supporting flexure (29), preferably etched of a single sheet of material, is provided for use in dynamic storage devices and rigid disk drives. The number of required components for the HSA is reduced. By eliminating the need for welding a separate flexure to a separate load beam and then to a separate mounting arm, the number of process steps in fabricating the HSA is decreased and the possibility of warpage to the HSA is prevented. Design changes are more easily facilitated by using the present etched unitary mounting arm and suspension assembly. |
