Hydraulic Exciter Control for Shock and Vibration Testing

Abstract:

The important part of the validation and certification of the new product are vibration and shock testing of mechanical, electrical and electronic equipment components that are mounted on rail vehicles. The hydraulic shaker is possible to use as the vibration and shock exciter to simulate the effect of the environment to the specimen. It is necessary to fulfil the prescribe condition of the level of mechanical vibration and the acceleration peak of the shock test signals. The specific hydraulic motor produced by INOVA is designed for the specific vibration test and the aim is to use it also for the shock tests. The control algorithm uses two iteration methods in time and frequency domain and their use depends on test prescription.
