Available from version 5.4.7.5
Before version 5.4.7.5 all the seals that are intended to be used with springs were calculated based on a hypothetic spring.
When the customer does not have the recommended spring or uses a different manufacturer, the seal design needs to be adjusted and the initial reference does not make sense on the customer work.
This menu can be accessed through:
7 types of springs can be set up, that are at todays date the most common springs types on the market:
- H spring
- V spring
- U spring
- Full contact
- Independent contact
- Slant coil
- Garter
When the profile is generated, the information about the spring selected is also provided on the information icon. The spring details is presented as can seen below:
There is also a simple information text with the content: suitable, caution and unsuitable, that informs the user if the current seal design suits the spring selected. This information changes if the user changes the proposed seal design.
Important note: Since the profiles are generated with the spring dimensions on the database, if the amount of springs present on the database is reduced, the software will probably generate wrong designs, therefor the software have this database pre-populated with spring dimensions.
