A programmable intelligent controller fills an industry need for a low cost, almost turnkey system, says Otek Corporation. The HI-QPNP-200 comes complete with sensors, wiring diagram, bill of materials, test procedures, and pre-configured controllers per customer's specifications. The device is contained in an industry-standard 4.5-inch switchboard housing with NEMA 4X front panel, but is only 1 inch deep. Targeted towards the power-distribution and generating industry, the controller can monitor, control, and log a variety of key parameters such as voltage, amperage, frequency, power factor, reactive power, sag, and swell in a single- or three-phase system. It has a triple LED or LCD display with eighteen screens to choose from. Otek Corporation, Product Code 4301.
Our LinkedIn systems and product design engineering group discusses if they are happy with their decision of remaining a technical contributor instead of becoming a manager.
Against a backdrop of mounting product complexity and a need to keep a lid on development costs, companies are recognizing a need to make simulation a more integral part of the design process. In response, vendors in the CAD world are building out CAE functionality as part of their CAD suites while simulation vendors are building tighter integrations to leading CAD tools. Keith Meintjes, Ph.D., Practice Manager, Simulation and Analysis at CIMdata, Inc., joins Design News CAD Editor Beth Stackpole in this radio program to explore the new face of integrated CAD and CAE, how companies are benefitting from this tighter partnership between platforms, and how integrating CAE earlier in the development cycle pays off in optimized product designs.
