Do you finish machine builds with custom products, but find they're expensive and time consuming to design and procure?

In this illustrated eBook, we explain how to design systems incorporating configurable power transmission components with geometry perfectly tailored to your system — to boost efficiency and minimize your reliance on custom parts. Example exercises include the full design of a linear actuator, and then a detailed course on how to specify one unique, application-specific locating pin.
