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.

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.

Hammer Impact Testing
-
EDM Modal Hammer Impact Testing provides the necessary features for a single-operator experimental modal test. The Hammer Impact GUI features an intuitive step-by-step process, allowing a user to easily go through the setup and then the testing.

Frequency Response Function
FRF
-
FFT Spectral Analysis. Frequency Response Function (FRF) is a commonly used measurement type of the Dynamic Signal Analyzer. FRF is defined as the ratio of response i.e. acceleration, velocity, or displacement with respect to the excitation force which is the reference.

MESA Vibration Control
-
MESA tests are specifically required when the unit under test is too heavy or too big and exceeds the capabilities of a single shaker. In a MESA application, multiple shakers provide excitation to the test specimen in a single axis. Different relations like same magnitude and phase for drives, different phase for drives, different magnitude and phase for drives, can be set for this MESA test.

Product
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.

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.

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.

Product
Correlation Analysis
-
EDM Modal Correlation Analysis allows the user to correlate two modal models; EMA and/or FEA models. Comparing the experimental data with that acquired through finite element analysis helps in validating the test results. Users can import the geometry model and mode shape data from FEA or EMA software.

Product
Geometry
-
EDM Modal Geometry/ODS/Animation is the primary EDM Modal software module, and is required for every EDM Modal system. This option provides fast and efficient structural model generation and full 3D visualization of test and analysis results.
-
Product
Standard Modal Analysis
-
EDM Modal Standard Modal Analysis provides the user with a complete arsenal of tools, from FRF data selection and parameter identification to results validation and mode shape animation.
-
Product
Operational Modal Testing
-
EDM Modal Operational Modal Testing (OMA Testing) includes a dedicated test setup and operation process flow using ambient vibration data. Using a large channel count data acquisition system (e.g., Spider- 80X or Spider-80Xi), the excitation method provides a much higher efficiency and accuracy for FRF measurements while minimizing local stresses on the test article.
