| Analytix |
 With Analytix, there's no need to enter long, involved formulas
to analyze your designs. Kinematic equations are embedded in
the software. So, in essence, the math is done for you. Instantly.
And accurately. Full kinematic, inverse dynamic and force analysis.
It even does the analysis you may not have had the time or luxury
to get to. Such as a statistical or minimum/maximum tolerance
stack-up on your design. Or force analysis for every possible
scenario, instead of what you think (or hope) is the worst case.
It's simple. All you have to do is quickly sketch your geometry
in a functional point-to-point centerline format, use your mouse
to click on a driving angle or actuator, assign values (for
velocity, acceleration, masses, moments of inertia, etc.), then
click on any other point or line to see resultant conditions.
Your analysis is complete.
"To me, time is money, and to be able to grab software
like this off the shelf, and go right into that part of
the design and use it is incredible. Analytix is very easy
to use. Very friendly." -- Don Varner, Mechanical
Engineer, Masco Technology Vehicle Operations
But suppose you don't get the results you'd envisioned.
No problem. With Analytix, you can change any dimension on
your design and get updated velocity and acceleration information
automatically and instantly. Without having to reprogram or
modify your equations of motion. Analytix is so quick and
easy to use, you'll even have time to explore entirely new
design options and still meet or beat your project schedule.
"As I use Analytix more and more, I'm able to get
more creative in some of the models that I use. We were
originally just looking for a mechanism solver, but we found
that what we ended up with was also a tolerance analysis
solver. It's done everything we wanted and then some."

| Works
the way you do |
|
 Analytix is designed with the understanding that your job
involves a lot more than engineering alternative designs.
You've got meetings to attend, vendors to talk to, and other
responsibilities vying for your time. So when you do sit down
to design, the last thing you want to have to do is pull out
a 400-page software manual to relearn a program. Thanks to
a unique parametric sketching interface, Analytix 3.2 is like
using paper and pencil. Only easier. Because when you make
modifications, you don't have to redraw the entire design.
"Analytix made our last project successful. There
is no way I could have iterated through the series of mechanisms
I did to get it to happen. Without Analytix I would have
to lay it all out or try it on fully automated CAD. That
would have taken six weeks. With Analytix it took about
a week." -- Paul Shewan, Design Engineer, Morgan
Engineering
What's more, Analytix is as flexible as it is intuitive.
It's the only parametric simulation software to offer a built-in
interactive calculator. It lets you write equations that drive
your design or use simulation outputs. Now you can ea sily
model stepper motors, electromagnetic or hydraulic forces,
or any other entity that can be defined with an equation.
You can also parametrically plot graphs or tables of any of
your design variables, such as forces, accelerations, distances,
or moments.
