Advancing the development of precision automation™
Precision Linear Motion Design I
Precision Linear Motion Design I | Precision Linear Motion Design II
Registration | About the Speaker
Developed and taught by an experienced design engineer, this unique short course provides an in-depth introduction to the design of precision automation equipment. It is currently the only short course focused on the motion system requirements of technology markets. Whether you are new to precision automation or need training on the latest technologies, this course is a must for design engineers, sales/applications engineers, project managers and engineering managers.
This course begins with a discussion of the most common system-level design criteria such as position resolution, accuracy, repeatability, throughput and cost. Subsequently, we cover the fundamental components that must be properly selected for any linear motion system to meet its required specifications; including bearings, drive methods, controls, feedback devices, structural materials, and cabling. The relative advantages of each technology will be provided along with section summaries, which relate component features to the desired system-level design criteria. The course will include discussions of both existing technologies (crossed roller bearings, linear guides, ballscrews, leadscrews, timing belts, step motors and servo motors) and new technologies (linear motors, piezo motors).
There is one goal for this short course: to provide the attendee with an enhanced system-level understanding so that your next project will be a success whether you are designing a precision motion system, specifying motion subsystems or choosing a supplier.
