Jack 6.1 for Tecnomatix
The Jack® software application is used as part of the Tecnomatix® software family. Recently the new version Jack 6.1 was released and will be shipped to customers soon. This new version provides a variety of new capabilities which significantly increase the productivity of your planning workflow.
The main new capabilities cover:
1. Advancements in population representation
2. Increased ease and realism in posturing
3. Sophisticated human performance assessment
Jack now supports the Chinese and Japanese population with dedicated anthropometric data bases. This enables you to validate easily and precise manual manufacturing situations for different populations.
The new force influenced posturing allows you analyze situations which include pull or push operations. Based on the influenced force, Jack automatically sets the right posture for the ergonomic analysis. This increases ease and realism in posturing Jack.
The Force-Solver allows one to predict the maximum acceptable force a human could exert under certain condition. This new sophisticated human performance assessment enables the user to execute what-if scenarios or assess design proposals and provide force-specifications. With the Force-Solver, one do not need to know the weight or force of an object a priori to conducting the assessment. The Force-Solver will calculate the maximum acceptable force for the human for you.
More detailed information about all the new and cool features of Jack is available by joining a free webinar on Feb 24th. This webinar includes a live demonstration. If you miss the live event you can also view a replay:
