Zusammenfassung:In one embodiment, a tangible, non-transitory computer readable medium stores instructions that, when executed by a processor, are configured to cause the processor to receive a first set of inputs including a motion profile of a machine, a mechanical design of the machine, or both, generate a number of axis solutions for one or more actuators, drives, and load transmission components based on a model using the first set of inputs, generate a production rate versus amount of energy consumed per part curve for each of the number of axis solutions, and display the production rate versus amount of energy consumed per part curves for each of the number of axis solutions. One of the curves includes a point on the curve indicative of a lowest amount of energy consumed for a desired production rate range.
