MIMO Vibration Controller
Spider-80M
-
The Spider-80M platform is based on the efficient Spider-80Xi architecture and is dedicated to MIMO VCS control and MIMO structural testing applications. Each Spider-80M chassis features 8 outputs capable of carrying out 6-degree of freedom MIMO testing. One Spider-80M chassis and multiple Spider-80Xi chassis can chain together to form a very large system with up to 504 input channels.

Product
Route Based Vibration Data Collector
-
The Crystal Instruments CoCo series are portable devices for vibration monitoring and predictive maintenance applications. The system consists of a CoCo analyzer and the Engineering Data Management (EDM) software. The CoCo is used to make field measurements and the EDM software in Vibration Data Collector (VDC) Mode is used to setup the CoCo hardware and define routes before field measurements, and to download data from the CoCo to analyze and archive afterwards.

Real Time Digital Filters
-
Real Time Digital Filters can be used to filter a measured signal in real time. Filter characteristics can be defined by the user to meet the requirements of a specific application. Real-time digital filters are applied in the data conditioning phase. The filters are designed with a graphic design tool and then uploaded to the front-end for real-time calculation. The graphic design tool defines the filter performance vertical axis with a dB scale. The horizontal axis is defined as relative frequency.

Product
Acoustic Control
-
Acoustic Control provides accurate control for high-level noise testing of reverberant chambers or progressive wave tubes. Based on the Spider hardware platform, Acoustic Control achieves quick and reliable control of the noise level to the reference octave spectrum and the overall sound pressure level (OASPL). Included safety features guarantee the safety of the unit under test.

Product
Vibration Visualization
-
It is difficult to imagine the actual vibration level and distribution from the numerical display or signals, which are basically a mathematical representation of the vibration experienced by the structure under test. Animating the structure’s deformation provides users with a clearer representation of the intensity from vibration.

Whole Body Vibration Analysis
-
Whole Body Vibration (WBV) testing is a type of vibration analysis geared towards estimating the effects on the operator. There are three categories of concern for the operator, health and comfort, perception, and motion sickness. The goal for any WBV test is to ensure that under normal operating conditions there is no significant or lasting effect of the vibration experienced by the operator.

Multiple-Input Multiple-Output (MIMO) FRF Testing
-
EDM Modal MIMO FRF Testing includes a dedicated test setup and operation process flow using multiple simultaneous shakers to acquire FRF signals. Using a large channel count data acquisition system (i.e., Spider- 80X or Spider-80Xi), this shaker excitation method provides much higher efficiency and accuracy for the FRF measurements while minimizing local stresses on the test article.

Order Tracking Analysis
-
Order Tracking is a general term describing a collection of measurement functions used for analyzing the dynamic behavior of rotating or reciprocating machinery for which the rotational speed can change over time.
