Follow these steps to have Motion Analyzer software to make the motor, drive,
and/or gearbox selections for you.

1. In the Automatic field, select Motor, Drive, and Gearbox (if present).
2. Click Search.

The Search in Progress dialog box opens.

When the search is complete, the

Solution List

opens with a list of motor/

drive combinations and a selection based on the application requirements
that you entered previously.

3. Click View Solution.

The Component Details and Axis System Performance windows open.

If the automatic selection process does not find a solution, it means that no motor
or drive in the specified family is capable of performing the task. When this
happens, the result is No Solution Found, which means you should try one or
more of the following:

Select a Motor Mounted Gearbox in the

Transmissions Tab

on

page 191

.

Try a bigger family of motors and drives.
Reduce application requirements until a solution is found.
Use Torque Analysis, within the

Efficiency Analysis

tool on

page 227

, to

determine which parameters are dominant. This may indicate which factor
to investigate.

Use

Tolerance/Design Analysis

on

page 222

to explore how much a

parameter should change to obtain a passing solution.
