PTE Revolutions: FVA Presents Transmission Design Considerations
For optimal gear design in accordance with requirements, it is essential to consider load spectra under the most realistic conditions possible as early as the virtual basic design phase. This is the only way to ensure that all components are loaded as evenly as possible to avoid overdimensioning.
PTE Video Spotlight: ABB Ring Geared Mill Drives
ABB continuously extends technical and performance frontiers of ring-geared mill drive technology to fit site requirements. They provide optimized mill drive solutions for all types of ring-geared mills: low and high speed, single and dual pinion, with and without a gearbox — all designed for reliable, long life and low maintenance operation.
From the Latest Issue of Gear Technology: DCS Examines E-Powertrain Electric Motor
The performance of an Electric Vehicle Power Unit is directly connected with critical tolerances. Tolerances drive opportunities for performance enhancement with cost reduction. The tests normally used to determine and validate tolerances are both expensive and time consuming with prototype parts. By replacing the initial tests with Digital Twin simulations, results can be obtained quickly, and at a much lower cost. This article discusses one of these tests and the results.
C-Lube Keeps Linear Motion Components Lubricated
Some linear guides focus on achieving the longest possible maintenance-free intervals. Others add as little as possible to the bearing’s mechanical package size. C-Lube linear guides have a unique design balancing both of these key objectives. This white paper offers a detailed overview of how C-Lube extends linear guide life.
