Hi,

Here I have attached the parametric equation for the creation of wave spring using law curve.
I thought this would be useful.

Dia_Outer=.25
Free_Height=.15
Number_Turns=6
Number_wave=2.5
Thickness=.006
Wave_Height=pitch
Width=.024
beta=360
pitch=Free_Height/Number_Turns
t=0
teta=360*Number_Turns
xt=(Dia_Outer/2)*cos(t*(teta+beta/Number_Turns))
yt=(Dia_Outer/2)*sin(t*(teta+beta/Number_Turns))
zt=(t*pitch*Number_Turns)+sin(t*teta*Number_wave)*Wave_Height/2
