DESIGN AND OPTIMIZATION OF GEOMETRICAL CHARACTERISTICS OF HELICAL SPRING USING FUSION 360

The suspension system is used to observe the vibrations from shock loads due to irregularities of the road surface. It is perform its function without impairing the stability, steering (or) general handling of the vehicle. Generally for light vehicles, coil springs are used as suspension system. A spring is an elastic object used to store mechanical energy and it can be twist, pulled (or) stretched by some force and can return to their original shape when the force is released. The present work attempts to analyse the safe load of 500 kgs. suspension spring with different materials. using Autodesk fusion 360 software completed the modelling ,analysis of spring suspension. This work also determines the structural strength of coil spring using Autodesk fusion 360.Based on theoretical and software result comparison the optimum turns which meet all requirements as suggested.
