Engineering Service
Development processes for individual actuator systems are often preceded by rough sketches. As a matter of fact, these first outlines are the product of intensive communication and exchange between you, the customer, and ourselves. Your specific requirements are already intertwined with our expertise and many years of experience. At this phase, we already lay the headstone for a successful and straight forward project flow.
Design and calculation - using the latest technology
The production facilities within the AUMA Group clearly highlight that production and assembly methods comply with the latest state-of-the-art methods with regard to safety and economic viability.
This fact is always pointed out by the visitors to our local sites. This innovative spirit also applies to less evident areas. Our R & D departments and test laboratories always implement the latest methods, an absolute must for developing state-of-the-art products.
Our engineers are continually trained in these methods and enhance their development to meet AUMA Drives challenges.
3D CAD tools are used beyond the mere design of parts.
At a very early stage, solid models can be used to check whether the space requirements offered at the place of installation is sufficient and that satisfactory access for operation and maintenance is granted.
Force loads are subject to extreme fluctuation for many customised applications. Sophisticated processes paired with our know-how allow determination of the load spectrum as key starting point for product design.
With the aid of continuously refined finite element method, we manage to achieve the optimum ratio between minimum material input and maximum load – from the ball bearing via the worm wheel sets to the housing.
Putting to the acid test
No calculation without double checking within the test environment. No market introduction without type testing. Modern calculation and design programs allow renouncement from some of the testing and considerably contribute to lean development processes.
However, testing components and devices under close to realistic conditions still is a prerequisite.
As a consequence, AUMA test departments are perfectly equipped among others with test benches for torque measurement and vibration tests, pressure chambers and climatic chambers, motor test benches.
The test equipment provides the evidence if the theoretically determined data proves correct and allows for performing lifetime tests.
Furthermore, we are capable of testing and confirming that AUMA Drives devices preserve their ability to fulfil their operational service even in harsh environmental conditions.
You will receive the expected reliability that every single AUMA Drives device supplied will to respond to the designated requirements.
