    Spring force after fixating with limited stiffness

    Thanks a lot guys! It all makes sense now :)

    Spring force after fixating with limited stiffness

    Yes indeed. Because the springs are in series. But the question is how much remains of the tension/compression force after the jig is placed and the press is released. It should be less that the 50 kN the press applied

    Spring force after fixating with limited stiffness

    Hi, yes the jig prevents rotation and is considered very stiff. In reality the spring k2 is a bus with limited stiffness that goes around k1. The jig goes through the bus supporting against the inner spring on the left and the right sides. see picture I think the jig and any deformations in it...

    Spring force after fixating with limited stiffness

    Hi folks, I have an interesting problem here from the real world, it's a design i am working on. So I have an object that is pressed by an hydraulic press with 50kN, let's call it F_before. Then I drive in a jig to fixate it. But the part that holds the jig has a limited stiffness. Hence if I...
