Kollmorgen is a prime manufacturer of integrated automation and drive systems accompanied by corresponding components for machine builder across the globe. Taking forward the vision, Kollmorgen has launched a new version of Motioneering with a faster and feature-rich online Servo Sizing Tool for Machine manufacturers.

Motioneering was introduced two decades back and it was the first tool to support mechanical design engineers in finding the ideal motion products to incorporate into their machines. A century-old expertise of Kollmorgen smoothens the design process and provides motion solutions according to the specific applications, such as, factory automation, robotics, material forming and many more.

The coming generation of Motioneering is faster and more intuitive, it offers customized application solutions, allows simultaneous comparison of multiple systems and offers user access to the latest products and updates.

The Key updates are as follows;

  • Improved Product Filtering: the updated product filtering offers the engineers to easily sort out the product family or families suitable for an application.
  • Added Details to design solution: New details for each potential solution provide users with a better understanding of each option with its advantages. E.g., safety margins (% margin) indicates the maximum limits of speed and torque beyond the requirement of the application.
  • Customizing parameters: The provision of customizing parameters and unit of measurements for each project once set, can be carried through each axis in a project.
  • Updated S-curve profile: Jerk reduction can be adjusted from 0 to 100% (linear to full S-curve acceleration).

By Encouraging engineers to accelerate design cycles and simplify the process of selecting best motion solution, Kollmorgen created Motioneering which is a part of a full suite of online design tools.

 The complete toolset includes:

  1. Product Selector: Allows users to enter parameters, such as motor torque and speed requirements or enter current and voltage requirements for a drive to identify and compare Kollmorgen products and find the best fit for an application.
  2. Performance Curve Generator: Adjusts winding factor, ambient temperature, drive current, and more to 1/2 generate speed/torque curves for frameless and housed motors.
  3. Interactive 2D/3D Modelling: Configures 2D & 3D drawings that can be imported into users’ CAD systems.
  4. Engineer’s Toolbar: Provides a quick and easy reference to material densities, trigonometric functions, inertia calculations and unit conversions.

Kollmorgen offers solutions which are highest in terms of performance, quality, reliability and ease of use, thanks to its expertise in the field of Motion Control Design, application experience and understanding of constructing standards and special solution for more than 70 years, customer can achieve market advantage which is beyond any doubt.
