Aluminium profile machine frames - FREE reference book

As profile systems and associated machine building components from various manufacturers evolve to become the preferred building technique for modern production, test and assembly equipment, the choice for designers becomes ever more complex. Profile Systems for Mechanical Engineering takes a broad view to help machine builders make considered decisions about materials selection, structural design, adaptability of profile systems, application diversity, fastening technologies and design software.

An Applications section presents real-world examples from different fields of mechanical engineering wherein MiniTec's own Profile System has delivered considerably shortened design and assembly times, thereby helping OEMs and system builders to realise faster times to market and reduced development costs for fully modular and easily scaled machine designs.

The book is available free of charge by contacting MiniTec.
