I'm looking into producing a spring datasheet generator utilizing CAESAR's output.

However, without a verbatim list of the values CAESAR might output, it seems as though it'll be a challenge to tamp out errors associated with data lookup and matching.

As I expect the information is stored in the HGR files, which are not plain text, I presume it's not possible to extract these tables this way. (This is nothing new - new spring manufacturers are invited to supply their data to Hexagon to be incorporated into the software).

I'd like to be able to definitively state "For manufacturers A, B, and C, the following models are available, and for each model, these are the sizes available.

Is there a path of least resistance to obtain this data?

Michael, can you email me on this, I want to make sure I understand exactly what you need.
