Users of springs increasingly require that designs are optimized. They take for granted that springs will be reliable, but are interested to know the scope for reducing weight, minimizing or maximizing rate, and using cheaper raw materials without compromising reliability. This paper illustrates newly developed software for compression, conical, extension, and torsion spring designs, which accomplishes each of the above options and much more.
