All Your Equations In One Place

When a linear motion solution is in place & running, it’s easy for the casual observer to think it looks easy. That’s what our industry is all about; making the difficult or even impossible look easy.

But what few people outside the industry realize is just how much work needs to go into the design of a successful linear motion system. The old adage “Measure twice, cut once” doesn’t even begin to cover all the variables, that have to be dealt with.

Now, a new app looks to make that successful design at least a little easier. The Design Guide Pro not only offers selectors for Bevel Gears, Worm Gear Jacks, Bearings and Electric Cylinders, but it also has a calculator section. Here, you’ll find tools to help you establish Energy, Critical Speed, Column Load, Torque and Nut Life as well as helping with Unit Conversions.

All in the palm of your hand. Check it out today by clicking here.

The New Modular Actuator Calculator Provides Solutions for Bearing Life & Load Considerations

Leave a comment

Engineering_Calculator_ThumbnailWhen trying to figure out the load size for an actuator, many engineers find themselves making guesses for the bearing considerations. This is because the bearings are buried within the actuator, which makes it impossible to determine their exact location.

Well, thanks to a new modular actuator calculator, engineers can stop guessing and receive precise load figures. The German-developed calculator works by simply choosing the desired product, entering its load definitions and allowing the tool to calculate the bearing stress and load to determine the bearing life of the product. The results can be viewed in an easy-to-read, printable format.

Now, if you want a particular product to last five years, all you have to do is plug in a few definitions and the calculator will determine the load necessary to achieve that life expectancy.

The free-to-use calculator is compatible with Safari and Internet Explorer. To access this resource, visit here.
