Launching the latest edition of its catalogue, maxon motor would like to remind design engineers that provision of free literature is just the start of the support it has to offer… which ultimately extends to the design of new products where necessary.
The 300-page publication, containing details of more than 147,000 precision motors, gearheads, encoders, controllers and other components, is intended by maxon as an essential reference work that should be on every engineer’s shelf. Each free catalogue also contains a free CD-ROM that holds the same information plus the ‘maxon selection program’.
In most cases it should be easy to choose the most appropriate components for any particular system by referring to the data presented. Useful advice, diagrams and formulae are given to help in this process.
The maxon selection program takes this further by automatically identifying individual products, and combinations of products, that closely match the design’s requirements – with no need for laborious manual calculations. It’s even possible to take CAD images of maxon components and drop them straight into the design.
