Residual stress
All the springs failed from the inside surface of an
active coil
Hence the residual stress of interest is that present
at the inside coil position at the surface
To establish the direction and magnitude of the
residual stress X-ray methods were used

Conclusion
Prestressing improves compression spring fatigue
performance
The fatigue improvement is 25 30% of the
magnitude of the change in residual stress
