Rodents find vibration testing system amplifiers an attractive home. Stuart Little and Remy (Ratatouille) were appealing characters in great movies for the family but finding one of their relatives has made a home in your amplifier is not a good situation. Rodents and electrical equipment do not mix. If they do, it typically makes for expensive repairs.

The right test equipment is essential to successful product testing. When purchasing a new vibration testing system (shaker) or environmental test chamber, choosing the right model for your test requirements is important. This article provides tips to aid in making the right choice.

Preventive maintenance is maintenance that is performed on operating equipment to ensure optimum performance and reduce the likelihood of a failure at an inopportune time. Maintenance strategies for electro-dynamic vibration testing systems (shakers) range from reactive (run to failure) to predictive maintenance, where the aim is to predict failures before they occur. Regularly scheduled maintenance, a.k.a. preventive maintenance, lies between reactive maintenance and predictive maintenance and offers numerous benefits in cost, and system reliability and performance.

Simultaneous 3-axis testing has several unique advantages compared with vibration testing in one axis at a time. The primary advantages include, but are not limited to, the ability to reproduce a real-world environment identical to what the product sees in the field, and significant setup and test time savings compared to individual single-axis testing.
