Motion-Control Webinars Cover Basic Concepts

July 21, 2009

In June 2009, the Thompson division of Danaher Motion offered a Webinar titled “Electric Linear Actuators 101: Basics for Design Engineers.” Unfortunately, an appointment kept me from tuning in at the appointed time. But the company will put the hour-long session in its webinar archives shortly.In the meantime, you can find these archived presentations:

Linear Systems 101: Basics for Design Engineers
Linear Bearings & Guides 101: Basics for Design Engineers
Advanced Linear Bearings & Guides 201: Troubleshooting for Design Engineers
Ball Screws 101: Ball Screw Basics for Design Engineers
Advanced Ball Screws 201: Troubleshooting for Design Engineers
Clutches & Brakes 101: Basics for Design Engineers
Gearheads 101: Basics for Design Engineers

on the Thompson Web site at: www.thomsonlinear.com/website/com/eng/misc/webinars.php. You must register for live and archived webinars, but the collected information is standard and not intrusive.

Other webinars scheduled for 2009 include:

July – Introduction to Slides & Tables
August 19 – Tips and Tricks for Linear Bearings & Guides
September 23 – Innovative Design Engineering with Ball Screw Technology

If you read this blog entry after September 2009, check the Thompson site at: www.thomsonlinear.com/website/com/eng/misc/webinars.php for information about webinar schedules. I welcome information about other archived and live seminar programs of interest to engineers involved with mechatronics projects. –Jon Titus

Light Matters: The Unsung Heroes of Modern Health Care
First, let's define "no-compromise." In an ideal configuration, this lamp would use a high-brightness LED (HBLED) that is built into a small, integrated package and is able to produce a large quantity of focused light, operate with a high level of reliability and generate no audible noise. Is this difficult? Yes, but it is possible.
