Acquisition front ends upgrade vibration
tests

The LMS Scadas family has been extended with a new LMS Scadas Mobile series of mobile and ultraportable data acquisition front ends.

LMS has announced a series of major novelties and extensions to its offering for noise and vibration testing and engineering The LMS Scadas family has been extended with a new LMS Scadas Mobile series of mobile and ultra-portable data acquisition front ends

LMS Test.Lab is tightly integrated with the new Scadas Mobile front end and gains a new solution for mobile noise and vibration testing, which is extensively tuned for optimal productivity and operator convenience during in-vehicle testing.

LMS has also strengthened its offering in the areas of qualification, and troubleshooting testing with LMS Test.Xpress, a powerful sound and vibration analyser and data recording solution, based on the same LMS Scadas Mobile front end.

The new LMS Scadas Mobile front ends pack the quality and acquisition power of the renowned LMS Scadas system into a compact and rugged design, offering versatile data-acquisition and signal-conditioning capabilities.

Designed for high measurement and testing productivity, LMS Scadas Mobile represents one of the most powerful systems in its class: providing up to 102.4kHz sampling rate per channel, 24bit resolution, 105dB signal-to-noise ratio, and a throughput rate that exceeds 2.2Msamples/s.

The LMS Scadas Mobile SCM05 system offers a compact and modular front end that accommodates from four to 40 channels, all packed in a portable, laptop size unit.

Its compact size, low weight and long battery life makes it the ideal front end for mobile testing applications.

For users who prefer a smaller channel count unit, LMS also introduced the LMS Scadas Mobile SCM01, which hosts four to eight channels, and provides the ultimate solution for portability.

In addition to the new LMS Scadas Mobile front ends, LMS also introduced LMS Test.Xpress, a no-compromise sound and vibration analyser that combines the operation simplicity of the traditional analyser with the high-speed performance and measurement quality of an advanced noise and vibration measurement system.

LMS Test.Xpress runs on the same LMS Scadas Mobile front end and offers a powerful, compact and lightweight analyser solution.

Its untamed real-time capabilities allow users to perform FFT, order and octave analysis with sound level meter functionalities in a single measurement run.

LMS Test.Xpress shows the analysis results instantaneously on screen, while saving the high-sampled time data on disc.

Users can validate results immediately after the test, while the system gives a first diagnosis on the spot and brings results in an MS Office report in just a single mouse click.

LMS Test.Xpress is fully interoperable with the LMS Test.Lab suite for advanced post processing of test data.

Through its tight integration with the new Scadas Mobile front end, LMS Test.Lab further strengthens its capabilities for test-based modelling and refinement.

The new LMS Test.Lab Mobile solution combines the high-speed data acquisition and integrated analysis tools of LMS Test.Lab, with a complete solution package that is fully adapted to the specific needs of mobile testing.

LMS Test.Lab Mobile offers extensive new features that substantially increase the productivity of field-testing teams.

The LMS Test.Lab user interface has been extensively enhanced for optimal operator convenience during in-vehicle testing.

LMS Test.Lab allows users to define test scenarios upfront, in preparation of in-field testing campaigns.

The instant data validation and online analysis capabilities in LMS Test.Lab make sure that field testing teams can verify data quality on the spot and diagnose problems while measuring.

"For decades, many of the world's most prestigious manufacturers have relied on LMS testing systems in support of their product development process".

"In response to the increasing challenge to perform more testing in less time and to gain more insight from less tests, LMS developed the new LMS Scadas Mobile front end series, and complemented LMS Test.Lab with the dedicated LMS Test.Xpress analyser solution", commented Filip Pintelon, Vice President and General Manager of the LMS Test Division.

"With LMS Scadas as a unified platform for data acquisition, LMS Test.Lab as a dedicated platform for test-based modelling and engineering, and LMS Test.Xpress as a fit-for-purpose analyser solution, LMS undoubtedly offers the most complete and versatile solution for noise and vibration testing and engineering available on the market today".

"Our solutions span a broad range of industry applications and cover the entire product life cycle, from the research and development stage to the manufacturing quality control and after-sales testing work". Request a free brochure from LMS International ...
