Jig or Fixture Design Problems and Solutions

Test fixture resonance. Prior to test, a test fixture survey should be conducted to ensure that the structural characteristics of the test fixture do not introduce uncontrollable resonances into the test setup. The survey may be experimental or analytical. If problematic resonances are identified, modifications should be made to the test fixture to shift the resonance beyond the frequency range of the test or to dampen the resonance in order to minimize the effect on the test.

Acoustic Testing

Acoustic Testing is performed to determine if the material can resist the specified Acoustic environment. It must resist this environment without degradation of its functional performance and/or structural integrity. Acoustic Testing or Acoustic Emission Testing is the measurement of sound emissions radiating from the equipment under test. In other words, how loud is the equipment?

NVH Testing for Automotive

NVH, which stands for Noise, Vibration, and Harshness, is the study of the noise and modification vibration characteristics of vehicles and is basically a measure of how much unpleasant aural and tactile feedback the vehicles deliver as you drive. NVH testing enables early recognition of NVH phenomena, which can then be avoided early during the development stage of the powertrain. This later makes driving in the production vehicle more comfortable and serves to avoid complaints and a loss of image.

Multi Axis Vibration

Multi-Axis Vibration Testing, an advanced method in vibration testing, challenges the traditional Single Axis (Uniaxial) Vibration Shaker. While uniaxial testing mimics real-world conditions to some extent, it fails to replicate the simultaneous vibrations a product experiences in its end-user environment. Multi-axis vibration testing involves shaking a sample along three orthogonal axes (X, Y, Z), providing a more comprehensive evaluation of a product's response to vibrations. This approach is proven to yield different responses, influencing fatigue damage distribution and failure modes.

Vibration Sensor: Definitions, Applications and How to Use it

A vibration sensor is a device that measures the amount and frequency of vibration in a given system, machine, or piece of equipment. Vibration sensors can be used to give maintenance teams insight into conditions within key assets that might lead to equipment failure, allowing them to predict the maintenance of the machinery, to reduce overall costs and increase the performance of the machinery.
