Simulation helps work out design of exercise equipment

摘要

Franklin Park, IL—By using Working Model 2D motion simulation software (Working Model Inc., San Mateo, CA) to analyze exercise equipment on a computer, Life Fitness is reducing the costs of physical prototyping, shortening design cycles, and bringing high-quality equipment to market more quickly. In the past, it took more than a year to finish a series of costly physical prototypes. Now, with Working Model, engineers can visualize and analyze dozens of different variations of mechanisms in two weeks.
