The Multi-Faceted 900 Series Vibration Controllers
Run any Pre-Defined Spec
Random (w/Kurtosis), Sine, Shock/SRS, Sine/Random-on-Random, Time Replication, and more.
Field Data Recording and Playback
Record field data with the portable Abacus 901, and replicate the vibration on your shaker with the same Abacus 901 unit functioning as the controller!
Integrate with Existing Lab Equipment
Signal our software to start/stop with analog or software messages – or control your other lab equipment with our software.
Automatic Data Archiving
Data and test profiles are automatically saved into a searchable test database.
Shared Test Database
Multiple test stands can share the same test database, and data can be reviewed and reported from anywhere on the network.
Use Your Vibration Controller as a Signal Analyzer
All 900 Series Hardware can function as a Vibration Controller, Data Recorder, or Signal Analyzer.
Advanced Monitoring During Test
Monitor health of your product during a vibration test with independent signal analysis measurements that execute during a vibration test.
100% Custom Reports
Generate your own report template in Microsoft Word using placeholder images and text. The 900 Series Controller fills in the placeholders with test parameters and results.
Acoustic + Vibration Measurements
Simultaneously acquire vibration and acoustic measurements from the same software and hardware platform.

Powertrain Vibration Simulation
Data Physics controllers can be used along with the Team Corporation 901 Engine Simulator.
- Simulates rotary vibration seen in powertrains by simulating rotary motion (RPM) simultaneously with angular vibrations multiple, discrete frequencies
- Multiple angular vibration tones can be controlled simultaneously, simulating harmonic vibrations
- Rotary motion (RPM) can follow the angular vibration frequency, or remain constant to simulate transmissions’ excitation
- Complete, turnkey system provided by Data Physics and NVT member company Team Corporation
Multi-DoF Road Simulation

Record Road Vibration in or 6DoF
Use SignalCalc 900 to record multi-channel time domain vibration to capture 6DoF vibrations – or use the MIMO Analysis capability to reduce the time signals to a Spectral Density Matrix to use in a MIMO Random Vibration test
Control 6DoF Road Vibration
Data Physics Controllers are the industry leaders in MIMO shaker control. Play back full 6DoF Vibration time histories on a 6DoF shaker such as the Team Cube (shown to the right) to replicate the exact vibration environment seen by your test article – or play back MIMO Random PSDs (Spectral Density Matricies), shock events, or more. See Multi Axis Controllers for more details.
