More powerful than a spring calculator, ODOP:Spring is a full-featured web application enabling the engineering design of coil springs.
MORE THAN A SPRING CALCULATOR.
ODOP:Spring is a spring design application of the problem-independent Open Design Optimization Platform (ODOP) software. It finds solutions for demanding spring application requirements in mechanical engineering and machine design.
Most coil spring calculators require users to manually input values – such as wire diameter, coil diameter, free length and number of coils – and then repeatedly re-analyze until an acceptable solution is reached. ODOP’s ability to invert formula relationships removes that guesswork. Spring design equations are back-solved to meet constraints placed on the problem variables.
NOT JUST CALCULATIONS. SOLUTIONS.
Need to identify the lightest-possible material weight? Ensure a long spring life and low risk of failure?
The ODOP:Spring helical coil spring design software can find the constrained extreme of any variable, whether independent or dependent. If ODOP:Spring is unable to find a design that meets the designer’s objectives as expressed by their imposed constraints, it will automatically converge to a compromise. From there, features are available to guide the designer in restructuring goals (for example, accepting an increase in size {weight; cost} or reduction in cycle life) to produce an acceptable final design with as little compromise as possible.
ODOP:Spring currently scores 50/100 in the CAD & CAE category. This is based on press buzz (24/100), and other relevant information on ODOP:Spring gathered from around the web.
