We’re putting the final touches on our new badges platform. Badge issuance remains temporarily paused, but all completions are being recorded and will be fulfilled once the platform is live. Thank you for your patience.

Hi Bushetty,

There is no direct way to control the compression of the spring at a certain position, but you can control the compression position by controlling the stiffness of the spring. By defining the actual stiffness up to the desired compression length, and defining the very large stiffness value beyond that length.

Refer: 9.8. Springs (ansys.com), Part 4 :- Different type of spring modelling in ANSYS Mechanical (youtube.com)

Thanks
