Joy Global: Fatigue Analysis using Large Field Strain Gauge Data with nCode GlyphWorks

This presentation discusses fatigue analysis work done at Joy Global using a large amounts of field strain gauge data with nCode GlyphWorks. Benefits seen from using nCode include: 

•  Elimination of manual operation and operator errors
• Accurate life prediction 
• Time savings (15x faster)
• Cost reduction (engineering time, software & hardware costs)
• Improving NPD by using strain gauge data to optimize machine controls and to improve machine performance
• Easy to program
• Flexibility of analysis
