Hello, I have a few questions for you.
Does the spring constant change when the setting is performed?
Is it the same when the setting is performed with heat applied?
I am currently studying a structure that uses a wave washer. Please tell me the calculation formulas for this.
Thank you.

Thank you for writing to us, Matsuoka!
The setting is a kind of plastic working by applying high stress above the elastic limit of the material in the direction of use in the final process of making the spring after coiling and heat treatment.
Therefore, there is basically no change in the spring constant. For wave washers’ calculation materials, please contact us from the following inquiry form in this link!
