Interact, a new range of intelligent pneumatic actuators from Hoerbiger-Origa, incorporates all ancillary control equipment, including an ASi fieldbus interface, into a standard drive unit.
New sizes for roller bearing system
Guideline, Hoerbiger-Origa's highly successful aluminium profile roller bearing system, has been expanded to include new sizes and options to address an even wider scope of applications.
The CAD catalogue is developed from PART solution software, the industry standard for parts and assemblies.
The Hoerbiger-Origa catalogue not only allows immediate access to product overviews and data-sheets, but, in the CAD section, also provides two or three dimensional drawings for both components and complete assemblies - in ACIS SAT, STEP, IGES, DWG or DXF formats - for direct importing into most CAD packages.
What's more, if the CD-ROM is fully installed, users have the additional benefit of selecting the native formats that they use themselves - PRo/E, CATIA, IDEAS, Unigraphics, Solidworks and AutoCAD.
On the web, users can choose to download all or part of the Hoerbiger-Origa product range and, after registration, are sent, via email, their selected two dimensional CAD drawings or three dimensional models in the format of their choice.
This eliminates long download times.
However, with the free CD-ROM, the user receives not only the catalogue and all of the CAD files available on the web, but also provides the means for complete assemblies to be configured and imported into the designer's CAD system.
Hoerbiger-Origa's well-developed assembly structure leads the designer towards logical combinations of products, such as linear guides and end cap mountings, and prevents incompatibilities.
The system is highly intuitive, with parts selected from simple menus using either text or product pictures and the program menu features icons that are familiar to most CAD users.
The CD-ROM follows through to make ordering even easier, supplying the appropriate order numbers for parts or configured assemblies and even supplies the means for immediate ordering, eliminating the tedious task of leafing through a thick paper catalogue.
