"Improving Mechanism Design with Kinematic Synthesis"

Why is mechanism design so frustrating and difficult?
What is the centuries-old method of mechanism design?
Is there a better way to design mechanisms that is faster and more reliable?
Are there any software tools which help to automate kinematic synthesis?

What you'll learn:

• Create mechanisms using synthesis
• Improve understanding of how to analyze mechanisms
• Be able to design mechanism for function
• Understand how to calculate – for mechanisms -- velocity, acceleration, force, mechanical advantage
• learn what tools are available

SyMech, Inc. is committed to helping companies create new mechanisms. Not only do we offer products to this end, we also offer professional
consulting services. Please e-mail us at consulting@symech.com for more information.

SyMech™ offers an intensive two day training course on designing mechanisms. It is recommended for any person who designs mechanisms or moving assemblies. In two days students will learn basic through advanced principles of mechanism synthesis.

• Synthesis of four-bar mechanisms.
• Synthesis of six-bar mechanisms.
• Creating multi bar mechanisms.
• Synthesizing mechanisms for prescribed motion.
• Synthesizing mechanisms for prescribed angular input and outputs.
• Synthesizing mechanisms that follow prescribed paths.
• Learn how to design mechanisms that will not bind during motion
  by defining minimum transmission angle requirements.
• Velocity analysis of mechanisms.
• Acceleration analysis of mechanisms.
• Calculating input and output forces in mechanisms.
• Synthesizing mechanisms for known mechanical advantage.
• Learn how to synthesize straight line mechanisms, and quick return mechanisms.
