Construction and Design

The Universal Vibration Apparatus - Vibrano X - 06 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 sections covering pendulum studies, spring mass vibrations, rigid beam vibration, and flexible beam vibrations.

Six pendulums of different sizes and materials are installed, including steel balls, a wooden ball, a compound pendulum, a wooden pendulum, and a bifilar pendulum. The spring mass vibration section uses a free hanged spring with interchangeable masses. The rigid beam is made of stainless steel, sized 700 x 29 x 11mm.

Forced vibration is generated using an electrical motor-driven imbalance exciter. Two exciter types are fitted: a linear exciter with servo motor and driver, and a DC 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 mechanical drum recorder and a polar diagram recorder, both using a spring loaded pen plotter, record vibration output. This Universal Vibration Apparatus stores all its parts in a supplied storage tray for organized handling.
