This is a parametric Fusion 360 file that allows you to generate different types of 3D printable springs by simply adjusting a set of parameters.
The file includes three different spring designs:
Blue spring β Classic wave spring (rounded shape, good durability)
Green spring β Zig-zag spring (higher travel but more stress concentration)
Orange spring β Adjustable wave spring (fully parametric, best overall control)
β HOW IT WORKS
Open the file in Fusion 360 and go to:
π Modify β Change Parameters
You will find multiple parameters to control the spring:
Length
Width
Height
Section thickness
Number of waves (must always be an even number)
M3_recorrido β Travel (only affects the orange spring)
π― IMPORTANT NOTES
The file is originally in Spanish, but parameters are easy to understand and modify.
If the orange spring does not generate, it means that combination of parameters is not physically valid.
π In that case:
Try increasing the travel
Or match the travel value of the blue spring
This will always generate a valid result.
π‘ WHY THIS IS USEFUL
Not all springs behave the same in 3D printing.
This file allows you to:
Adjust the exact travel you need
Avoid overstressing the spring
Design stronger and more reliable mechanisms
Quickly prototype functional parts
