Please tell me how to measure the spring pressure.
I am measuring the force of a U-shaped flat spring by pressing the same force with a digital force gauge from above, but there are variations due to errors in the stroke adjustment stage. I would like to change the measurement method.
Is there any good method that I can apply? Automatic measuring instruments are expensive and cannot be afforded. I would like to know if there is a cheap and measurable method.
Thank you in advance.

Mr. Komaribane, thank you for your post!
If the fulcrum and the point of use of the flat spring deviate even a little, the effective length of the spring will change, and the load will change or vary accordingly. I don’t know if this causes the problem or not, but why don’t you consider using a jig that fixes the spring to the same position and can be pressed stably at a fixed position?
