Description
Advanced Spring Design 7 (ASD7) is a product jointly developed by Universal Technical Systems, Inc. (UTS) and the Spring Manufacturers Institute (SMI). ASD7 combines engineering expertise with customized calculations created in TK SolverÕs collaborative environment to help you design quality springs.
New Features and Spring Types
Conical compression springs with non-linear rates
Systems of compression springs in series and in parallel
Variable pitch and diameter on single springs
Internal and external garter springs
Ability to calculate torsion at arm and arm length calculations
Constant force spiral spring
Stacked Belleville washers
Internal and external snap rings
Context-sensitive help linked to SMI encyclopedia
Built-in curve-fitting routine for tensile strength data
Life plots with user-defined S-N curves
3D images produced for each design
Improved management of saved designs
Notes can be saved with each design
Enterprise option for sharing designs across networks
Key Features & Benefits
Versatility and Value
ASD7 meets your needs in a single program by including a variety of spring types: Compression springs, extension springs, spiral forms, torsion springs, garter springs, snap rings, washers, beams, and torsion bars.
Generates DXF images of the designs, with drawing file export capability.
Re-formatted plots and reports are available.
Flexible database of materials with a new estimation routine for minimum tensile strength makes it easier to add your own materials.
Add your own S-N curve data for fatigue life estimates.
Time-Saving Features and Powerful Design Tools Produce Optimal Results
Designs can be backsolved for any variables of interest. A single program solves a problem in any direction you need.
Produces clear and concise reports, including plots and drawings.
Cylindrical and conical compression springs can be combined in series (stacked or continuous) and in parallel (nested).
Fully backsolvable means of designing a compression spring with variable pitch, rate, size, etc.
Dual Expertise of SMI and UTS Equals Superb Customer Productivity and Support
SMI's Encyclopedia of Spring Design is linked to ASD7 as part of its context-sensitive help utility.Help is tied to each field of the program, and now includes diagrams, formulas, and descriptions.
Outstanding technical support is provided from the start. "Live Meeting" orientations get you up and running quickly. Phone and email support assist with detailed design questions. Free online updates become available as enhancements are made.
