Pros & Cons

  • Ability to "edit on-the-fly" while the model cycles accelerates the optimization process.
  • Allows design from the end-product/tooling requirement backward to the drive mechanism
  • Solves directly from motion and providing high-quality manufacturing data
  • Focuses on motion optimization as the primary driver for machine performance
  • Makes simulations significantly faster and more robust than error-minimizing solvers in general CAD
  • Requires direct contact for pricing
  • Primarily focused on cam and servo-driven multi-axis machines, making it less versatile for general mechanical design
  • Can be complex and challenging to learn for those unfamiliar with 3D modeling and specialized kinematics/motion design principles.
