Most engineers are familiar with traditional wire wound (coiled) springs, but in this webinar attendees will learn about a viable alternative known as “machined springs”. Based on the whitepaper “Choosing between Machined and Wire Wound Springs”, the webinar will review differences between these two types of springs along with the advantages of each and application…

Designing for additive manufacturing requires a new mindset. Simply designing traditional parts and producing with additive manufacturing will likely result in more costly, slower to produce results. In order to truly benefit from the advantages of the additive process, designers must think differently when designing parts. Topology optimization is a technology that generated ideal structural…

There is an increasing demand in the automation and motion control industries for a localized motion control solution that can coordinate motion between multiple remote components. Previously, field bus protocols such as Modbus or Ethernet have been implemented to address this demand. Although successful in moving data across automation networks, these protocols lacked the real…

The webinar will be discussing the complete system from the air compressors all the way to the end use.…

In the last half of the 1990s EDA industry analysts began talking about the growing market for tools above the RTL handoff level. This new electronic systems level (ESL) tools market was supposedly going to explode and dramatically change the design landscape. Many companies were funded, but the market never really took off as forecasted.…
