Construction and Design
The Free & Forced Vibration Apparatus - Vibrano X - 08 is mounted on a sturdy, low-vibration aluminum profiled frame with an internal size of 900mm x 700mm and a groove width of 10mm. Quick fastening elements engage the formed grooves for accurate experimental set-up. The trainer is organized into spring mass vibration and rigid beam vibration sections.
The rigid beam is made of stainless steel, sized 700 x 29 x 11mm. Forced vibration is generated using an electrical motor-driven linear exciter or imbalance exciter. Two exciter types are fitted: a linear exciter with servo motor and driver, and a DC rotary exciter or servo rotary exciter. Exciter frequency is set precisely through a control unit with digital display.
An adjustable oil damper made of aluminum with steel components acts as the vibration absorber. A non-contact displacement sensor with IP67 protection measures oscillation amplitude electrically. A mechanical drum recorder, fitted with a spring loaded pen plotter, records vibration output, with a polar diagram recorder available as an optional accessory. This Free & Forced Vibration Apparatus stores all its parts in a supplied storage tray for organized handling.
