Overtone Comparison with ObserVIEW

Instruments produce musical tones through a variety of means. For woodwinds, air is blown into a vibrating column that comprises the body of the instrument. Instrumentalists can adjust the column’s length to adjust the fundamental frequency of the vibration. Guitars, pianos, and string instruments are similar in that they have strings pulled taut between two fixed locations. The string is excited and oscillates in a stable pattern at its fundamental frequency.

Drop Shock Testing for Products and Packaging

Many products will experience shock vibration during shipping and handling or in use. These shocks may be infrequent, such as an accidental drop or repetitive, as with transportation over rough road conditions. Vibration test engineers use shock testing to simulate these conditions in the lab and confirm the structural integrity of the device.
