Specifications


*1 Random force ratings are specified in accordance with ISO5344 conditions. Please contact IMV or your local distributor with specific test requirements.
*2 Power supply: 3-phase 200/220/380/400/415 V, 50/60 Hz. A transformer is required for other supply voltages.
*3 In case of 400 V
*4 Above 4000 Hz, the force rolls-off at a rate of -6 dB/oct.
*5 Above 2000 Hz, the force rolls-off at a rate of -12 dB/oct.
*6 Spec described above is in case of 60Hz. Dimension is changed in case of 50Hz.
*7 Export License is required for exporting the shaker system of over 50 kN Sine force.

* The specification shows the maximum system performance. For long-duration tests, de-rating by up to 70% must be applied. Continuous use at maximum levels may cause failure.
* In the case of Random vibration test, please set the test definition of the peak value of acceleration waveform to be operated less than the maximum acceleration of Shock.
* Frequency range values vary according to sensor and vibration controller.
* Armature mass and acceleration may change when chamber is combined.

Key Features

  • Improvement in excitation force
    When compared with the conventional i & J series, the A series increases the relative excitation force.

    • Increased force per system power requirement
    • Increased force per system mass
    • Increased force per system size

    A Series Excitation Force

  • Standard 76.2 mmp-p displacement
    *Only for A30, A45, A65, A74

    A-series has a displacement of 76.2 mmp-p (3 inch stroke) which gives good balance between specification of velocity, acceleration and displacement. This single system can be used in a very wide variety of tests.

    A-Series Displacement

  • Increase in frequency range

    In addition to the increased displacement of 76.2 mmp-p, the maximum frequency range is also increased when compared to the i, and J-series.

    A-Series Frequency Range

  • Cross-axis acceleration reduction

    A series dramatically reduces cross-axis (crosstalk) acceleration (horizontal vibration). Highly accurate testing is achieved.

    A-Series Cross Axis

  • High velocity shock testing 
    *Only for A30, A45, A65, A74

    Where a test requires a high shock velocity, traditional shaker systems use a matching transformer to achieve the necessary higher armature voltage.
    Since IMV’s ECO-system has complete control over the field level, the field value can be adjusted to increase the maximum shock velocity capability of the system. By entering the specified shock profile into IMV’s K2 controller. The field level in the shaker is automatically adjusted to ensure that the required velocity is achieved. A-series (EM amplifier model) provides a maximum of 4.6 m/s shock velocity testing.

Examples of Shock Test

J-series (conventional)
A-series

  • Lower power consumption

    In comparison with the same class of conventional systems (i,J-series), the A-series achieves lower power consumption. With an automatic energy-saving function increased energy saving is achieved across all force ranges.

    A-Series Power Requirements

  • International safety standards
    A-series complies with international safety standards.

Available Options

ECO-Shaker

ECO-shaker is an electrodynamic vibration test system in which the output of the power amplifier, power input to the vibration generator and cooling blower speed are automatically optimised, according to the payload and test requirements.

Complicated manual settings are no longer needed. Changes in the operating environment or in test level are accommodated without operator intervention.

Features
  • Only vibration test levels need to be set
  • Automatic response to changes in sample under test or test level
  • Continuous monitoring of temperatures used to control blower speed

High performance slip table

Hydrostatic-Bearing Slip Tables from IMV Corporation are of the latest design and use hydro-static bearing blocks which are attached to the underside of the slip plate to enhance the performance of the test system.

Features
  • High moment resistance
  • Low cross-axis acceleration
  • Low distortion
  • No requirement for a separate hydraulic unit
  • Good work efficacy
  • Smaller system installation space

A-series Table Insert Pattern

Variable Armature Insert Pattern

The option to freely select the table insert pattern on the shaker armature.

  • Selecting this option, the armature mass will increase.
  • Due to combining with other options; the horizontal slip table, insert pattern may have restrictions


Head Expanders

The purpose of a Head Expander is to allow testing of multiple items simultaneously, or expanding the test area of a shaker for larger test samples.

Head Expanders can increase efficiency, or simply expand your test capabilities on an existing Vibration Test System.

Features
  • Increase Efficiency – Test Multiple Items Simultaneously
  • Expand Test Capabilities
