  ECM won the IDEA Awards’ Design and Operations Software category for its PrintStator Motor CAD platform. The IDEA Awards also recognized ECM as an honoree in the Electric Motors, Drives and Components category for its ultra-light, premium efficiency, next generation, pump motor design created by PrintStator. Hosted by Endeavor Business Media, the IDEA Awards celebrate outstanding innovation in product design and engineering. Finalists and winners are selected by the editorial teams of five publications and a readers’ choice vote by the engineering community of  Machine Design ,  Electronic Design ,  Power & Motion ,  Microwaves & RF  and  Vision Systems Design . “ECM is honored to receive recognition from the IDEA Awards’ editors and readers for our PrintStator Motor CAD software and integrated PCB Stator technology. Electric motor design and performance are in need of a 21 st  century makeover. PrintStator delivers that capability to the public via SaaS,” ECM CEO Brian Casey

In the realm of electronics design, heat sinks are essential devices that help to dissipate heat produced by electronic or mechanical devices. These thermal management devices play a pivotal role in the performance and longevity of electronic devices by preventing overheating. Designing an effective heat sink, however, presents its own set of challenges. There are several variables at play, such as the shape and material of the heat sink and the airflow conditions, among other things. Finding the optimal combination of these variables to improve the heat sink’s performance is easier said than done. For instance, creating and testing new heat sink prototypes can be time-consuming and resource intensive. Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) tools have become especially relevant in designing heat sinks, primarily because of their ability to model complex fluid and heat transfer scenarios, which are integral to effective heat sink design. CFD: A quick primer CFD is a branch of fluid mechanic

Biomedical and Pharmaceutical industry: Most of the cutting-edge technology used in the pharmaceutical industry are developed with the involvement of mechanical engineers, especially those with knowledge in design and manufacturing. Even a company manufacturing something basic, like disposable syringes, needs a machine that moulds medical grade plastic into a syringe. The regular maintenance of these machines also requires the skill set of mechanical engineer. The regular maintenance of th
