Compact Shakers For Modal Analysis & Vibration Testing
X-Act Exciters

A Force of 300N Sine Pk & a Maximum Displacement of 25mm Pk-Pk

The X-Act 325 is a versatile electromagnetic shaker offering a force of 300N sine pk and a maximum displacement of 25mm pk-pk. Unlike traditional shaker systems, the X-Act 325 features both air and water cooling. The highly efficient water cooling allows the X-Act 325 to operate continuously and quietly at high excitation forces, a scenario where typically only larger, more costly, and noisier air-cooled shakers would be suitable.

x-Act exciters. Compact Shakers For Modal Analysis And Vibration Testing

The compact size and low weight of the X Act Exciter facilitates mobile use and simplifies the positioning and alignment of the system. For component testing, it uses an interchangeable vibration table with a 115mm diameter and integrated M6 threaded inserts. For modal analysis, the vibration table can be swapped out for a collet chuck. The lightweight moving element minimises interactions with the structure being tested while maximising peak accelerations. Additionally, a through-hole in the armature allows the use of pre-stressed wires to apply the generated forces to the structure under investigation. When using a stinger, its length can be adjusted by clamping it in a chuck.
