Flanders Make - Portable model analysis setup

Description

Our portable modal analysis setup includes portable exciters, vibration sensors and data acquisition systems. It allows the experimental analysis of the vibrational modes of mechanical structures. The output of the test is the set of modal frequencies, deformation shapes and damping factors related to the investigated structure. This information is useful in the design phase to avoid resonance amplifications and to validate dynamic models.
