New Vibration Test Uses 4 to 8 Channels

By DE Editors

LMS(Leuven, Belgium) is now distributing a new LMS Test.Lab VibrationControl solution using 4 to 8 channels for closed loop vibrationcontrol testing of physical prototypes. The LMS Test.Lab VibrationControl system is claimed to allows test engineers to qualify whether a product isfit for normal to extreme operating conditions, or to validate if thetest item will survive rough transport conditions. The new solutionsupports endurance testing, online damage monitoring, and trendanalysis.

With the LMS Test.Lab Vibration Control system, test engineers canqualify the usage of their products under a variety of use andtransportation circumstances, and measure its performance over theexpected lifetime. The system offers a solution to perform thesevibration control tests and supports random, shock, sine, and combinedtest modes.

The company reports that LMS Test.Lab Vibration Control also includes an integratedsupport of common standards for vibration qualification testing, likethe MIL STD 810, GAM EG-13 or IEC standards. The system also offersflexibility in setup definition to support non-standard specifications,allowing the use of more complex test profiles derived from field datausing test tailoring. The system supports reproduction of the targetreference spectra on a shaker installation, using 4 to 8 controlchannels.

The MS Windows software requires little training and allows operatorsto automate long duration tests with full security. The workflow-baseduser interface of LMS Test.Lab assists the user through the steps ofdefining the setup, validating the hardware instrumentation, monitoringthe test execution, and reporting the results.
