Product
Acquire, Analyze, Import Vibration Data
-
Reproducing actual field vibration data is a key feature of the APEX Series Vibration Controllers! It provides four distinct and important choices for analyzing and importing data for creation of random, transient shock, and time replication acceleration control (TRAC) tests. Collecting data and importing the information into the controller is accomplished by using the Signal Analyze/Transient Capture and Data Acquisition modes, or by importing stored ASCII file data. The Import Data Manger provides guidance and extensive editing options for optimizing the new test. The resulting test reference (time or frequency spectrum) can then be performed at the vibration test system.

Command Link
-
The APEX Series Controllers offer an optional RS232 Amplifier/Shaker interface and a software command/status panel to operate UD’s newly enhanced SA and SAI Series amplifier/shaker systems. The SA-Command Link provides identical functionality as the standard SA Amplifier front panel switch buttons, LED status indicators and current/voltage meters. In addition, it provides a Power Save selection to automatically power down the UD SAI Amplifier/Shaker system after a test has finished or aborted, and current / voltage limits can be set to abort the test for added system / specimen protection. Now the complete UD test system can be initiated, monitored, and controlled from one convenient location.

Apex Series Calibration Kit
-
The APEX Series Calibration Kit provides calibration personnel the ability to re-certify the calibration of the APEX SL or APEX PRO control systems in-house. A simple Windows based program and an RS232 digital interface to a Keithley multi-meter, goes through system checks and verifications, and provides a detailed printed report of pass/fail, actual and expected values, and tolerances for each parameter checked.

Long Stroke Thrusters
6X Thruster Systems
-
The SA15-6X-S is regarded as an industry standard Long Stroke Thruster Test System. It is widely regarded as the workhorse for production testing of automotive AIRBAG sensors by leading suppliers of automotive airbags and associative control modules. The SA15-6X-S was designed to produce highly accurate and repeatable acceleration pulses in the horizontal plane; pulses such as classical haversine and half sine waveforms, and for simulating actual crash waveforms imported as ASCII amplitude/time history or as a transient capture. The long stroke capability and powerful SA Series power amplifier can reproduce crash waveforms with velocity changes up to 17 MPH.

Slip Table Assembly
ST Series
-
The ST Series Slip Table Assembly is one of three base configurations offered by Unholtz-Dickie for its vibration test systems. It is ideally suited for sequential 3-axis test capability with minimized cross axis response; for testing heavy, oversized, or non-symmetrical loads; and for products where orientation with respect to gravity is necessary.
