I'm a mechanical designer in a company that builds magnetic inspection tools for the oil and gas pipeline industry. These tools use a magnetic flux leakage (MFL) principle to find cracks, corrosion pits and other defects in the pipe wall.

I used EMS in many magnetostatic studies to design the magnetic circuit of one of the tool components, and I was very happy to see how accurate the results were, after laboratory tests confirmation. Because EMS is easy to use and allows me to view the study results by cutting sections anywhere in the 3D model, I can optimize the magnetic design of our tools to a level impossible to achieve without a powerful software like this one.

Now I'm planning to extend the magnetostatic studies to all the tool components, using EMS with much bigger and more complex models.

ABB Automation Products business unit in Västerås, Sweden designs and produces large and powerful DC motors for major industrial applications.  The output power of such motors actually ranges from 30 KW to 1400 KW!

The Research & Development Department of the DC Motors division is currently developing a new generation of larger DMI motors.  They use the CAD software package SolidWorks and its Gold Certified electromagnetic Add-in, EMS, from ElectroMagneticWorks to optimize their design.  With the help of these powerful design tools, they aim to develop powerful DC machines.  Such machines will achieve output power and torque significantly higher and more compact than any DC motors available on the market today.

I am the R&D manager at Verdun Anodizing. Verdun has been in business of anodizing of aerospace and military components for over 70 years.

I used EMS to simulate primary and secondary current distributions in our electrochemical cells using the Electric Conduction module.Using this tool, we succeeded in optimizing the setup of the electrochemical cells by studying various material of the electrodes and the bath parameters such as the acid concentration and temperature.A trial-and-error procedure would have taken us years to achieve the optimal design achieved using EMS. It was a well worth it investment.

I started using EMS because I was looking for a software that could compute accurate 3D magnetic field results, and at the same time provide all the associated variables, such as inductance, force, losses etc. Not only EMS perfectly fulfilled my simulation demands, but I also benefited from the great tech. support, which made my experience with EMS even more enjoyable.
