Improvements to the art of noise (and vibration)
LMS International has upgraded its Test.Lab integrated software suite for noise and vibration testing and engineering.
LMS has become accepted at Caterpillar for its strong knowhow and complete offering for noise and vibration engineering, the proven productivity of its solutions, and the flexibility of the LMS Scadas III data acquisition platform.
Competitive pressure continuously forces off-highway manufacturing companies to optimise the noise and vibration performance of their products and to actively respond to changing customer requirements and ever-stricter legislation.
The LMS Test.Lab system strongly supports engineering teams in tackling these complex challenges.
LMS Test.Lab combines state-of-the-art capabilities, strong ease of use and a complete coverage of key noise and vibration applications.
This strongly increases the efficiency in pinpointing and correcting vibration problems, and in analysing and optimising the dynamic properties of designs.
In off-highway engineering, the role of noise and vibration testing is no longer limited to the qualification and optimisation of physical prototypes in the late development stages.
Using LMS Virtual.Lab Noise and Vibration, engineering teams analyse the correlation between finite element (FE) models and test models, and improve the accuracy of FE models.
In addition, LMS Virtual.Lab Noise and Vibration assists them in building hybrid simulation models, combining FE models and test-derived models of components and subsystems.
Overall, LMS Virtual.Lab Noise and Vibration supports the accurate simulation and efficient optimisation of a design's noise and vibration performance before committing to virtual prototype testing. Request free introductory details about products from LMS International ...
