Spring Calculator Professional Features

See in detail the new features in Spring Calculator Professional compared to our v7.5 software

Eight spring types available

Licenses available for Compression, extension, torsion, conical compression, rectangular wire compression, non-standard round wire compression, disc and spiral spring types.

Flexible licensing

Standard license includes 5 activations, multiples of this are available or full site licenses. Maintenance contract ensures free support and upgrades, but is not necessary for continued operation.

Design & tolerance standards

Design springs to a range of international standards - including BS, DIN, EN, SMI, IS and JIS.

See full list of available standards...

Range of optional modules

The standard validation module provides all calculations and outputs including fatigue and relaxation predictions (where data allows), and there is a choice of add-on modules.

More information about different modules...

Range of material standards

Wire and strip data is available to BS, DIN, EN, ASTM, AMS, IS and JIS specifications, as well as selected commercial grades.

See full list of wire specifications...

Various outputs

Print each output window or copy to clipboard to paste into emails or other documents. Plus EN 15800 drawing output for compression springs.

Software modules explained

You must purchase the Base and Graphics module for each spring type you are interested in (these were previously sold separately but are now only available together), and have the choice of adding on any additional modules. The Base module enables you to perform all the calculations involved with a spring design, and also provides tolerance data to your chosen design standard. The Graphics module provides fatigue life estimations and relaxation predictions (where data exists for a specific material), as well as showing a drawing of the spring and a load/length graph.

The Design module (available for compression, extension and torsion springs) allows you to specify geometry constraints and one or two working positions, and will provide you with the lightest possible spring that meets these needs. An addition to this is the Optimisation module, which is currently only available for compression springs (but will be launched soon for extension and conical springs). This is our most advanced functionality, and allows you to give a minimum and/or maximum value for *any* of the dimensions or properties of the spring. You then choose to optimise for a minimum or maximum value of any aspect that interests you - such as the lowest weight, shortest solid or free length, or highest natural frequency.

Finally, the Compass module is available for compression and extension springs. This is aimed at spring makers, and allows the coiling process to be optimised by measuring a spring after an initial setup of the coiling machine, and then calculating the optimal setup to bring all properties within tolerance and as close to specifications as possible.
