Precision Spring Design Guide

The document provides specifications for designing a stainless steel spring including the wire diameter, modulus of rigidity, mean diameter, number of turns, number of springs, free length, operating length, spring rate, spring force, face area calculations, spring pressure, and notes that the spring pressure should be designed between 0.1 to 0.5 MPa. The spring design calculations meet this criteria with a spring pressure of 0.17 MPa.
