Description
The Electro-Mechanics and Controls (EM&C) Laboratory is a
multi-faceted facility focused on armament related
electro-mechanical components and assemblies with capabilities that
include engineering design, fabrication and testing using state of
the art tools.
The EM&C Laboratory provides customer support through an
environment enabling the Benet workforce to integrate
electronic/electrical hardware with computer-based control systems.
Hardware activities performed typically focus on armament test
equipment & test support items, encompassing multi-axis
actuation control, power management & sensor interfacing.
Computer-based rapid prototyping of control systems thru use of The
MathWorks control development tool suite. Modern electronic test
equipment is applied consisting of digitizing oscilloscopes,
waveform generators, logic analyzers, digital multimeters, current
probes, and PC-based data acquisition.
Our Virtual.Lab software expertise gives us the capability to
simulate and optimize the performance of electro-mechanical systems
for structural integrity, system dynamics and Matlab control
feedback. In Virtual.Lab, we build accurate simulation models,
simulate their real-life performance, assess electro-mechanical
control designs and optimize end-to-end performance before
prototype construction.
