Mechanical, electrical and industrial design engineers, and students preparing to enter these disciplines.
In 2019, Ellis joined Envista Holdings Corporation, a new spin-off from Danaher for the dental industry, as Vice President of Innovation. There he spends every day immersed in lean knowledge work, deploying, improving, and sustaining new product development workflows in EBS, Envista’s brand of lean knowledge. He also wrote Project Management for Product Development, Control System Design Guide (4th edition), and Observers in Control Systems, all from Elsevier.
- Explains how to model machines and processes, including how to measure working equipment, with an intuitive approach that avoids complex math
- Includes coverage on the interface between control systems and digital processors, reflecting the reality that most motion systems are now designed with PC software
- Of particular interest to the practicing engineer is the addition of new material on real-time, remote and networked control systems
- Teaches how control systems work at an intuitive level, including how to measure, model, and diagnose problems, all without the unnecessary math so common in this field
- Principles are taught in plain language and then demonstrated with dozens of software models so the reader fully comprehend the material (The models and software to replicate all material in the book is provided without charge by the author at www.QxDesign.com)
- New material includes practical uses of Rapid Control Prototypes (RCP) including extensive examples using National Instruments LabVIEW
