The catalogue features include a Product Configurator compatible with the manufacturer product options, technical documentation, product images and virtual test benches for user convenience. This complimentary package of Automation Studio^TM has been developed in accordance with Famic’s software certification and quality process.

Using the Product Configurator, the user can easily select specific product characteristics and configure the manufacturer-specific part number of the component. The options to choose the bore, stroke and rod diameter, pin size and more are available. The product information, technical data and symbol get updated with the selected options. All these Catalogue Manager features were designed to enable the user to easily choose and configure pre-modelled cylinders.

Users may now simply drag and drop the desired cylinder into the editor area of Automation Studio^TM for circuit integration. The cylinder models can be directly used for the design of a hydraulic circuit, real-time simulation or monitoring in Automation Studio^TM.

Product Test and Application

The cylinders in the catalogue are configured and tested for various sizes and stroke lengths at 10 milliseconds simulation pace. The simulation models take into consideration each product’s performance data available in the manufacturer’s specification, and adjust them to the specific project working conditions (oil viscosity, density, temperature, etc.). For example, to verify the stroke length of a cylinder, an application test is simulated. With this test, the configured stroke length of the cylinder, as per the specification, is confirmed. The test files for each product are available in the “Documents” tab of the Catalogue Manager. These tests validate the performance of each product of the catalogue per the manufacturer’s specifications. All the cylinders of this catalogue are ready to simulate and can be directly used in Automation Studio^TM for any application project.
