Vibration Controller Upgrades |

|
|
Older, closed-loop controllers eventually become obsolete for a number
of reasons.
 |
old Operating System (DOS,
Windows 2000...). |
 |
plug-in Hardware Boards (ISA in
particular). |
 |
no new Software revisions or
support. |
 |
inability to be networked, or
support modern printers. |
LDS-Dactron offers two, highly-popular replacement controllers, the entry-level
COMETusb and the engineering-level
LASERusb. Key advantages include:
|

|
Windows XP and Vista-compatible.
|
|

|
as easy to connect & install as a USB Printer!
|
|

|
latest Software support, updates, feature enhancements.
|
|

|
telephone support & training classes, readily available.
|
.
With two distinct hardware platforms (COMET and LASER), and two levels of
software (the Engineering-oriented Premier level and the more basic, production-oriented
Value level), LDS-Dactron can offer a variety of products at
different price-points to meet your budget.

Both controllers offer these great features:

 A Vibration Controller receives vibration signals
from accelerometer(s) attached to the Shaker/Vibrator and compares the measured accelerations to
the desired accelerations defined by the test specification profile. Real-time adjustments are made
to the output signal, which is fed to the Amplifier driving the Vibrator. This iterative process maintains the
fidelity of the table vibrations throughout the test, regardless of system non-linearities, temperature
changes, system drift, DUT resonances, etc.
