Case Histories/White Papers and Research
Whitepaper:  Total Cost of Ownership and Linear Motion
Company: Bosch Rexroth Corp.
You may not realize it, but many of the products you buy actually cost a lot more than the initial price you paid for them. For example, let’s say you paid $25,000 for your vehicle. How far do you drive and how many gallons of gasoline do you use each week? How much does gasoline cost in your area? How often do you change the oil, rotate the tires, or have other maintenance work done? Over a 5-year period, these expenses, all a necessary part of operating your vehicle, can easily add up to $12,000 — or approximately 50 percent of the price of the vehicle.

Whitepaper:  Improving gearmotor efficiency
Company: Bison Gear & Engineering
With the concerns over the growing energy crisis, the efficiency of electric motors has become an important, timely topic. The reason: electric motors consume from 63% to 70% of the electricity used in domestic manufacturing, and represent 23% of the total electricity consumption in the U.S. However, most motor efficiency efforts to date have focused on only about 10% of the total electric motor population.

Company: Electro Sensors
Unwanted slowdown or stoppage of a conveyor can result in costly and even dangerous conditions. Product waste, machine damage, process downtime, and unsafe working conditions can all be attributed to conveyor failure. Bulk raw materials such as grain or rocks may be damp or wet – adding significant weight to the conveyor belt and leading to belt slippage or slowdown.
