SYPRIS TEST AND MEASUREMENT EXPANDS VIBRATION TESTING SERVICES
V-9 shaker tests heavy loads at high vibration reducing time and expense.
---- ORLANDO, Fla. (March 10, 2005) Sypris Test &
Measurement, a subsidiary of Sypris Solutions, Inc., today announced
the addition of an LDS V9 Shaker System at its Orlando test facility.
The shaker is designed to test heavy loads at high vibration levels
over long periods of time, significantly reducing test time and expense.
The system consists of the V9 Shaker, a slip table and computer controlled
programs.
"The new shaker system can be used extensively to
test avionics, military hardware, automotive components and electronic
assemblies," said Arvin Blank, Sypris Test & Measurement Environmental
Test Engineering Manager. "It is a high-precision system that will put
test items through their paces in the two horizontal axes as well as
the vertical axes. The sophisticated design provides high-stress testing
without putting sensitive aerospace and electronic payloads at risk.
It is also ideal for automotive NVH and squeak and rattle testing."
The V9 is one of the largest shakers in the world, with a three-inch
stroke and 2,000 pounds capacity. Loads can be up to six feet in height,
and 48"x48" in width and depth. The shaker system's computer controller
can operate random, sine, shock, shock SRS, sine on random, and random
on random programs with 8-channel data acquisition.
"The V9
Shaker System reflects our continued commitment to meet the growing
demand for more rigorous and comprehensive testing, particularly in
military and aerospace fields," said Kathy Boyd, Sypris Test & Measurement
president and CEO.
