AiME's Task |
|
|
|
Based upon continuous input from motion control users, AiME's task is to:
- Provide educational and support systems
- Facilitate selection of motion solutions
- Identify and encourage an Industry Focus on strategic technology development
- Promote advanced technology solutions
Further, AiME is working to foster an environment which promotes an improved understanding by potential users of the value that motion control solutions can bring to them and their companies, and to increase
the awareness of the value delivered by qualified motion control specialists. We "AiME" to meet these objectives through educational programs targeted both at the user and supplier of motion control
solutions. AiME is promoting and administering a rigorous certification program for Motion Control Specialists. Our most significant efforts to date have been to develop the tutorials, workshops, and technical
sessions that are offered at the different motion control conferences & expositions held at key locations around the United States. The education acquired by attending these conferences and workshops not only help prepare attendees for the Fundamentals Exam that are a part of the process to become a Certified Motion Control Specialist, but they convey practical information and tools to help you do your job better. |

The Emerging Motion Control Specialist |
|
|
|
There are few other fields that require the integration of as many engineering disciplines as does motion control. What other specialty requires the practitioner to understand and use,
simultaneously, machine design, dynamics, digital and power electronics, control, computers & programming, interfacing, physics, instrumentation, etc. While not yet recognized by academicians as a separate
discipline or specialty, one day there will be universities offering degree programs in Motion Control Engineering. While no one yet carries the title of Motion Control Engineer, there are already thousands of graduate
engineers who have, by cross-disciplinary self-study and experience, acquired the skills to be recognized as a Certified Motion Control Specialist. If you are one, join us at
AiME and work to become certified so that we may thereby help raise your level of recognition. |
