Design, simulation software adds power

Staff -- Control Engineering, 6/1/2006

Newest version of Automation Studio design, simulation, and documentation software for fluid power and electrical projects optimizes workflow from system design to maintenance, service, and training. It puts advanced engineering capabilities, realistic animated simulation, and flexible documentation into one environment. Extended symbol libraries include vendor-specific components. Integration of a Spool Position Designer and a Pump Builder facilitates creation of the schematic implementation of any valve inner function and of complete pumps with their corresponding controls and characteristics. HMI and Control Panels module lets users create control panels or simulate systems while monitoring a 2-D reproduction of a machine moving accordingly. www.automationstudio.com Famic Technologies Inc.
