Portescap's new publication is, however, much more than simply a catalogue.
It also contains comprehensive sections describing the various technologies used by the company's products, and provides invaluable advice on selecting the most appropriate components for almost any application.
Examples of typical applications are also featured, and many useful formulae are included, which simplify and speed the work involved in the design of miniature drive systems.
Many users of the publication will also find it an invaluable source of clear definitions of miniature drive terminology, which cut through the obfuscation that all too often hinders access to published technical data.
