Schnorr Disc Springs
STACKS IN SERIES
Disc Spring Engineering
Maximum load - minimum space - maximum flexibility
Introduction
A stack of ‘i’ springs in single series (figure 21 – b) results in the following without considering friction:
Spring Load
Formula 17

Spring Deflection
Formula 18

Unloaded Stack Length
Formula 19

Only the deflection is multiplied by the number of springs in series, not the load.
