In the highly regulated and demanding world of electronics, aerospace, and industrial equipment manufacturing, ensuring product reliability under vibration stress is of utmost importance. Our advanced Electrodynamic Shaker Systems have been meticulously engineered to perform sweep vibration tests in strict compliance with the IEC 60068 - 2 - 6 vibration testing standard, providing manufacturers with a reliable and accurate solution for evaluating product durability.
1. Understanding IEC 60068 - 2 - 6 Vibration Testing
The IEC 60068 - 2 - 6 standard, established by the International Electrotechnical Commission, outlines comprehensive vibration test procedures for electrical and electronic products. Sweep vibration testing within this standard is designed to simulate the continuous change in vibration frequencies that products may encounter during transportation, operation in vibrating environments, or due to mechanical resonances. By subjecting products to these tests, manufacturers can identify potential design flaws, such as components that may become loose, solder joints that could crack, or structures that resonate at critical frequencies. This helps in improving product design, reducing the risk of in - field failures, and ensuring long - term product reliability.
2. Key Features of Our Electrodynamic Shaker Systems
Precise Sweep Vibration Generation
Our shaker systems are equipped with state - of - the - art technology that enables the generation of highly precise sweep vibration profiles. The frequency range typically spans from 5 Hz to 3000 Hz, covering a vast spectrum of possible vibration frequencies. The sweep rate, which determines how quickly the frequency changes, can be precisely adjusted according to the requirements of the IEC 60068 - 2 - 6 standard. This allows for the accurate replication of real - world vibration scenarios, whether it's a slow - sweeping vibration during a long - distance transportation or a rapid - sweeping vibration in a high - speed rotating machinery environment. The amplitude of vibrations is also precisely controllable, with a maximum acceleration of up to 100 g and a maximum displacement of ±50 mm, ensuring that products are tested under the most relevant and challenging vibration levels.
IEC 60068 - 2 - 6 Compliance
Every aspect of our electrodynamic shaker systems, from the vibration generation mechanism to the control system, has been carefully calibrated and designed to meet the strict requirements of the IEC 60068 - 2 - 6 vibration testing standard. The systems can execute all the relevant test procedures, including sinusoidal sweep, random sweep, and combined vibration - shock sweep as specified in the standard. This compliance gives manufacturers the confidence to certify their products as meeting international - recognized reliability standards.
Customizable Test Profiles
We understand that different products may require unique testing conditions. Our shaker systems allow for the creation of highly customizable test profiles. Engineers can set the specific start and end frequencies, sweep rate, amplitude levels, and test duration according to the requirements of the product being tested. For example, a small, delicate electronic component may require a slower sweep rate and lower amplitude, while a large, robust industrial equipment may need a faster sweep rate and higher amplitude. The systems can be programmed to meet the exact needs of each test.
High - Quality Test Platform
The test platform of our electrodynamic shaker systems is designed to securely hold products during testing. It features a flat, stable surface with multiple attachment points to accommodate products of various shapes and sizes. The platform is made of a high - strength, vibration - dampening material, which minimizes external interference and provides a clean test environment for accurate results. Additionally, the platform is designed to withstand the high forces generated during testing, ensuring stable operation even at extreme vibration levels.
User - Friendly Control System
Despite its advanced capabilities, our electrodynamic shaker systems feature a user - friendly control system. The system is PC - based, equipped with intuitive software. Operators can easily input test parameters, start and stop the test, and monitor the progress in real - time. The software provides clear visual displays of key data such as vibration frequency, amplitude, sweep rate, and test time remaining. It also has extensive data - logging and analysis capabilities, enabling the collection and in - depth evaluation of test data for comprehensive product performance assessment.
