MIMO Vibration Control Overview
MIMO Testing has gained a huge momentum in the past decade with the development of multiple shaker table systems, the availability of Multiple-Input Multiple-Output (MIMO) controllers, and the readiness of the standards (e.g., Mil STD 810G method 527 and IEST DTE 022 working group recommendation). The Multiple-Input Multiple-Output (MIMO) Control System includes the following:

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.

Multiple Shaker Control
EDM Multi-Shaker Control (MSC) is a software option included in the EDM testing package along with VCS. Multiple Shaker Control provides one centralized interface to interact with multiple controllers running separate tests at the same time. Multi-shaker controllers are not time synchronized unlike in MIMO VCS, in which all drives are time synchronized.

Automated Production Testing
Automated production testing is critical in today’s competitive manufacturing environment. Companies can no longer rely on variable costs, non-uniformity, and potential health hazards that come with a laborer-based manufacturing line. This is no less true for sound and vibration tests, ranging from in-process burn-in tests to product validation and verification tests.
