MotionCompass provides a wealth of self-contained data available on recommended options, including electrical and mechanical specifications, speed vs. torque curves and performance charts. All data is dynamically generated in real-time and provides the ability to select a solution based on specific application needs. Users can choose product(s), review performance metrics and confirm the optimum solution for the application.
A unique feature of MotionCompass is the ability to assign weights to four key performance parameters (speed, efficiency, power and current), which directly impact motor recommendations. The intelligent algorithm, developed based on years of experience and application know-how, recommends a set of ideal motor solutions to maximize application performance. Additional motor parameters, such as diameter, bearing type, efficiency and current requirements, feedback options etc., are available to further narrow down recommended options that meet specific application needs.
MotionCompass puts the power of product configuration and selection in the hands of the user. Real-time product recommendations based on user inputs provide the ability to evaluate a multitude of options and determine the optimal motor for the application. Users can fine tune application parameters and evaluate performance impact on-line without ordering samples to test in live application – eliminating the iterative qualification process. Hours of pouring through catalogue data has been replaced by minutes of time spent on-line, with a depth of data not previously available, to enable faster decision making.
