Program Linkages will design and analyze pin-jointed and slider linkages with four, five, and six links. All will synthesize and analyze the position, velocity, acceleration, dynamic force and torque of a linkage for one position, a full revolution of the input link at constant speed, the time response to a constant acceleration of the input link, or the response to a cam or servo-drive as input to the linkage. They will also generate and analyze the dynamics of the path of a coupler point on one or more links. The linkage is animated on screen and all calculated data are plotted or printed to screen or to an Excel-compatible disk file. The link on this page will give more detailed information and allow the download of a demo version.
