How to Search with Spring Finder 5.0

Acxess Spring's Spring Finder 5.0 is a versatile online tool that simplifies the process of identifying and ordering the ideal spring for your application. Below is a  step-by-step guide with practical tips to help you maximize the tool's functionality and streamline your experience.

 

Step 1: Choose Your Spring Type

Select the type of spring that best fits your application.

Spring Finder - Select your Compression Spring TypeSpring Finder - Select your Compression Spring Type

Practical Tips:

Know Your Application: Before you begin, clearly define your application requirements. Are you looking for a standard compression spring or an extension spring with a particular set of legs? This will start the selection process

Step 2: Enter Your Dimensions

Input the key dimensions for your spring, in a compression spring, in this example, it would be outer diameter and free length, into the designated fields. The more dimensions you input, the more specific your results will be, and you can always enter a bigger range of min and max inputs to get larger search results.

Practical Tips:

  • Measure Accurately: Ensure that you have accurate measurements for the outer diameter and free length. Make sure to consider any space or design limitations in your project when entering dimensions.  If you're looking of a replacement spring, use precise tools or digital calipers to measure your spring. 
  • Use a Range for Flexibility: For broader search results, consider inputting a larger range of minimum and maximum values. This is particularly useful if your design can accommodate some variability, and you’re looking for a better deal.

After entering your specifications, click the Search button to generate a list of matching springs.

Practical Tips:

  • Review Your Inputs: Quickly double-check the values entered to ensure they accurately reflect your requirements.
  • Allow Processing Time: Depending on the range and specificity of your inputs, the search might take a few moments. Be patient as the system processes your criteria.
  • Reset if Needed: If the search results seem too limited, try adjusting your inputs (e.g., widening the range) and clicking search again.

Step 4: Choose Your Spring

Examine the search results organized in two tables:

  • Red Table: Lists standard or stock springs ready to ship.
  • Blue Table: Showcases a broader range of custom springs automatically designed for you based on the dimensions you input

Practical Tips:

  • Use Filters Effectively: Utilize the available filters (e.g., maximum load, material type, spring rate) to further narrow down the options. This helps you focus on the most relevant springs for your application.
  • Examine Both Tables: Don’t limit your choices to one table. Compare options between the Red and Blue tables to see a range of available products, both standard and custom.
  • Compare Springs: To compare multiple spring options, select the "compare" box next to the relevant part numbers on the table. Then, click the "compare option" at the top of the page to view your selected springs side-by-side. This feature is useful for comparing and discussing options with colleagues.

Once you selected your spring, click lick on a spring’s icon or part number to access its detailed specifications:

Step 5: Learn Everything About Your Spring

On the Spring’s Product Page, you can navigate to the four tabs to learn more about your selected spring. You can view the spring in 3D, download the 3D CAD, see the prices and read the specifications on the first tab, email yourself the quote and shipping estimation on the second tab, read and download the blueprint on the third tab and virtually test different loads and deflection for your spring with our spring force tester on the fourth tab
