Sine Vibration Control
Sine Vibration Control is Used to Qualify a Test Article or to Excite its Resonances to Test Durability
Swept Sine testing is the primary tool for characterizing the dynamics of a test article. Sine testing delivers sinusoidal excitation to the article under test, controlling the excitation level through a pre-defined frequency range.
Custom Reports and Data Review/Export
Fully Customizable Plots
Include readouts including test parameters, customer and test article name, operator, test time, etc
Overlay Data
Data from one or more runs can be overlaid in Review Mode within seconds. The overlaid plots can be placed in a report.
Data Export
Sweep data can be exported automatically at the end of a test.
Create Custom Report Templates in Word
Create a report template in Microsoft Word and have SignalCalc 900 populate the report parameters, plots, and images automatically after each test (DP900-68)
Images and Media
Attach images of the test article or setup and have them printed in the report
Generate Reports Anywhere
Generate Reports on the PC that conducted the test, or on any networked PC
Notching and Manual Controls
Optimized Notching
Industry-leading notching performance – Notch profiles can be applied to any channel including math channels
Force, moment based notching
Sum forces or compute moments from multiple channels and use the results as notch channels
Predictive Notching
Both realtime limiting based on live measurements, and predictive limiting based on pre-test FRF signature
Full Manual Control
Control the sweep manually to sweep through tricky resonances
Manual Ramping
Control the ramp up manually, and wait for user input before starting the sweep
Math Channels
Math channels can be used to to compute summed forces or moments; and the result used as a notch/limit channel. Math computations are gap free and the resulting channels behave exactly as an input channel.
Effective Control
Fast Test Setup
Tests setup parameters are chosen automatically, or can be taken from an existing test.
Ultra-High Speed Control Loop
Stable control of both hydraulic and electrodynamic shakers, and control of test articles with high Q resonances
High Speed Abort Triggers
External safety systems can quickly trigger a shutdown to protect valuable test article
Physical Stop Switch
A Physical stop switch is included with every controller
1 Status Display
Large readout of live test status in the control panel.
2 Manual Controls
Export data to Excel/ASCII, Matlab, UFF, ME’scope.
3 Limiting/Notching
Compare and contrast signals from different Tests/Runs/Saves; construct waterfall plots from individual saves in Review Mode.
4 Transmissibility
Transmissibility between any two channels with stats displayed.
5 Custom Layouts
Fully customizable plots and multi-monitor support.
