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.

4. Applications
Electronics Industry
In the electronics industry, our electrodynamic shaker systems are
extensively used for testing a wide range of products. Smartphones,
tablets, laptops, and other consumer electronics are tested to
ensure that their internal components, such as circuit boards,
batteries, and displays, can withstand the vibrations during normal
use and transportation. Industrial electronics, like control
panels, power supplies, and communication devices, are also tested
to meet the high - reliability requirements of industrial
applications.
Aerospace and Defense
Aerospace components, including avionics systems, engine parts, and
landing gear components, are subjected to rigorous vibration
testing using our shaker systems. The ability to simulate the
complex vibrations experienced during flight, takeoff, and landing
is crucial for validating the safety and reliability of aircraft.
In the defense sector, military equipment such as communication
devices, weapons systems, and navigation equipment are tested to
ensure their functionality in harsh, vibrating environments.
Industrial Equipment
Industrial equipment, such as motors, pumps, and compressors, is
tested to ensure its long - term performance and reliability. By
subjecting these equipment to sweep vibration tests, manufacturers
can identify potential mechanical failures, such as bearing wear,
shaft misalignment, or resonant frequencies that could lead to
premature component failure. This helps in improving the design and
maintenance of industrial equipment, reducing downtime, and
increasing productivity.
