DesignGuidePro-Nook-industries-calculator-online-exampleNook Industries, a leading innovator of linear motion components and systems, now offers a DesignGuidePro application, which lets engineers and designers quickly find the appropriate worm gear jack, bevel gear jack, electric cylinder and bearing products for their application.

The application makes for easy navigation when searching for design considerations for worm jacks, bevel jacks, electrical cylinders and bearings.

Simply plug in the desired specifications, and the app will provide a list of products best-suited for the application.

“DesignGuidePro puts the formulas right in the palm of your hand in an easy-to-use mobile app,” said Ronald Giovannone, project manager at Nook Industries.

“Nook is known for providing engineering support for linear motion applications, and this app is one more way that we can help our customers keep moving.”
