Right sizing

Many customers will choose a gearbox or linear actuator without going through a detailed analysis of how that gearbox/actuator will affect the rest of their machine components. Ask your mechatronics specialist about sizing the correct reducer or actuator so that your costs of the motor, drive, cables and cabinet space are kept to a minimum. Young Mechatronics uses sophisticated sizing software to help choose the proper mechanical solution as well as the proper motor/drive package. Life of the gear reducer/actuator/leadscrew can be calculated using one of the several tools shown below.
