Motor and Electronics Approach - Rapid Prototyping

CUSTOM DESIGNS

Aspen Motion Technologies engineers participate at the earliest design stages, which gives them a thorough understanding of the customer's needs. This process results in custom solutions that incorporate cost considerations, product performance, ease of manufacturing, and efficient time to market.


PLATFORM PRODUCTS

Engineering design and tooling of these "platform" products is done and ready for quick response to specific customer inquiries. The time up front cost of tooling, unit cost and time to market are all reduced as a result of this approach, while still offering a great deal of flexibility and modifications as required.

MOTOR AND ELECTRONICS APPROACH

Aspen's engineering approach is to address the technical challenges posed by the OEM's by considering both the electronics and motor aspects of performing the task within the cost constraints. By using advanced electronics to enhance the motor's performance and functionality, new and innovative features become available to the OEM. These features can result in the crucial competitive advantage and innovation that the OEM is often looking for. The combined motor and intelligent electronics approach offers advantages that are seldom available if the motor and electronics designs are done piece meal and separately. Enhancing the numerous advantages of permanent magnet brushless DC motors with the powerful advantages offered by harnessing DSP technology, is what Aspen is bringing to an increasing number of applications.

RAPID PROTOTYPING

One of the hallmarks of Aspen's pre-tooled platform approach is the very rapid prototyping. More importantly, the management of Aspen understands the importance of the OEM's need for speedy time to market. The understanding of the crucial need permeates throughout the Aspen organization and is a tangible competitive advantage for Aspen's OEM customers.
