The screen-captures
highlight the visual feedback when inputting radial and axial
cross-section data. Some of the many housing types available
are shown. You can also determine whether the motor is flange
or foot mounted and whether a feedback device is fitted.

The screen-capture
demonstrates the visual feedback when inputting motor winding
details. The winding is automatically divided into several layers
so that the temperature differential between inner and outer
sections of the winding can be calculated. The layer details
depend upon the type of winding, slot-area, slot-fill/conductor-number
and wire size used. Overlapping or non-overlapping winding types
are modelled.
Non-geometric
data is input via dedicated editors.
