DeltaMax 1-1/2 axis position systems gain flexibility with the addition of encoder-based motors to the existing line of resolver-based motors. Eleven new 1,500 rpm rated motors join the line, and they are available in power ranges from 400W to 11 kW. Designated the A Series, these new motors use a 2048-line encoder and associate circuitry to deliver 8,192 pulses per revolution. The motors also have higher inertia than the resolver-based motors. DeltaMax offers one active servo axis with one half axis follower fiber-optic input. Other features include two 32-bit RISC processors for fast program execution, all digital electronics, SMT boards, status displays, and two RS-232 ports. Industrial Indexing Systems, Product Code 4172.
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.
