LIGHTWEIGHT MODAL AND INERTIAL SHAKER WITH 1000N EXCITATION FORCE
Compact, Mobile & Extremely Robust Modal & Inertial Vibration Shaker
The OMEGA 1050 modal and inertial shaker from MB Dynamics is a cutting-edge device that sets new standards in vibration analysis. Its outstanding efficiency enables it to generate high excitation forces of up to 1000N sine peak at a very low weight of only 35kg. This makes it particularly well-suited for use in environments where portability is crucial, allowing engineers to easily transport and set up the unit in the field e.g. in outdoor applications for vibration analyses on bridges and buildings, seismic simulations or geological investigations.
The OMEGA 1050 can fit into the boot of a standard mid-range passenger vehicle, offering an unprecedented level of flexibility for engineers and researchers.
.
Its large vibration displacement of 50 mm and integrated pneumatic load support enable the use of high inertia masses of up to 150 kg and the generation of high excitation forces even at very low frequencies. The robust bearing of the shaker moving element makes the OMEGA 1050 shaker insensitive to lateral forces, allowing it to be operated in both vertical and horizontal alignment. Integrated temperature and displacement sensors, along with temperature-controlled fans, ensure the OMEGA 1050 inertial shaker is protected from overheating and excessive displacement. The shakers are monitored and the associated power amplifier is controlled clearly and conveniently from the central test bench computer via a remote control app supplied.
