Trade-in and Installation of 65 kN Vibration Testing System

Have your vibration test equipment needs changed? Do you need a bigger system? Perhaps a slip table with higher resistance to pitch, roll and yaw moments.

The latest trade-in accepted by Sentek Dynamics was from a satellite manufacturing company that was looking to upgrade their 65 kN Vibration testing system with a low-pressure slip table to a system with high-pressure slip table. As a part of the trade-in offered, the Sentek Dynamics’ Field Service Team decommissioned the customers’ existing M6544A-PA170-LST800M/AAC/AIM/BU-5/CIP/DMF/LSO vibration test system which included disconnecting the equipment, draining fluids to prevent spilling and leaks during transportation.

The M6544A-PA170-HST800M/AAC/AIM/BU-6/CIP/DMF/LSO vibration test system for larger payloads and demanding testing requirements was successfully installed as a part of the trade-in. The new system will be used for developing and qualifying the next generation of cube satellites. System features include:

  • High-pressure slip-table (HST800M) for horizontal testing requirements

  • Automatic static and dynamic armature centering (AAC)

  • Air-isolation mounts (AIM) to isolate vibration energy from the facility foundation

  • Custom insert pattern (CIP) as required by the customer

  • Degauss coil (DMF) for the reduction of stray magnetic flux

  • Long-stroke option (LSO) for up to 76 mm (3 in) displacement

  • Motorized gearbox (MGB) for assistance in shaker rotation

The M6544A-PA170-LST800M/AAC/AIM/BU-6/CIP/DMF/LSO vibration test system accepted as a trade-in has been added to Sentek Dynamics’ extensive list of inventory and is ready for a new home!
