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.

You can type in a high stiffness value for the springs.  Spings are useful because they converge very easily.

You could instead draw a line body where each spring goes. Make sure to mesh with exactly 1 Link element on each line. Connect the end of the line to the diameter of the rigid roller. The effect will be the same as the spring but will be a lot more work.
