Stern's mechanical engineers used ALGOR 3-D Modeling Software
October 23, 2006 - Stern Pinball, Inc. continues
to strive to give its customers the most well-designed and reliable pinball
machines possible. In this effort, Stern's mechanical engineers
use ALGOR, Inc.'s 3-D modeling software to both model and test
its mechanical assemblies in the playfield layout. This process
has been so successful that IEN, DesignFax Online, Motion Control Technology,
and Euerka design and mechanical engineering magazines have all
recently highlighted it.
ALGOR's 3-D modeling software allows Stern's mechanical engineers
to create models of its playfield mechanisms on the computer screen. Then
through simulating a pinball striking the mechanism, the engineer tests
the mechanism, thus helping him to design the most resilient part possible. The
engineer can then validate or disprove this computer simulation through
a real life example as recorded by Stern's high-speed video camera.
Stern Pinball mechanical engineer John Rotharmel is interviewed in each
of the magazine articles on his use of ALGOR's 3-D software. John
says, "We're the only game in town, but we never want to be complacent
about our product."
