The qualification requirements for integrating vibration phenomena (see wiki) are gradually becoming generalized to all sectors of industrial activity. Equipment can be integrated into a vehicle (car, aircraft, train, ship, etc.), used in a vibration environment (industrial equipment, proximity to rolling systems, etc.) or can be transported (general public or professional products when they are marketed or used).
The vibration tests are diverse:
Vibration tests can be fatigue tests by monitoring of resonance, endurance, characterization (resonance frequency, transfer function,...) simulation following a customization of the tests.
Our laboratories place at your disposal the expertise of their teams in the implementation of your testing programs. The dimensioning of our vibration equipment (exciters, vibrating shakers,...) allows us to meet the most demanding specifications by reconciling our capacity to carry out your tests on bulky equipment (horizontal table 1500mm x 1500 mm) and high mass (1800 kg) and capacity of reception by their number to secure your deadlines for the implementation of your tests.
Our test solutions are integrated in a more global framework with our engineering services ranging from test tool design to virtualization of tests.
In addition to our laboratory services, our know-how has led us to offer you training solutions, as well as services dedicated to preventive and curative maintenance of your vibrators and associated calibration services.
For the duration of the tests, from a few minutes to several months, the equipment under test can be continuously monitored: thermocouple, voltage, current, rotation speed, micro-power cuts,...
Our multiple servitudes (electric, hydraulic, pneumatic) and our expertise in the field of vibration, climatic and hydraulic allow us to carry out tests in the configurations of representative environments in normal or severe use.
Vibration tests are important for vehicles, products which will require transportation and equipment which will be subjected to vibration in their operating environments.
They cover a broad array of industrial sectors: cars, rail, military hardware, aeronautics, space, nuclear, telecoms and general commercial goods.

For very high frequency tests, it is necessary to use piezoelectric vibration generating means.
We have 2 generator sets of 4 kN and 30 kN covering a range from 1000 Hz to 10 kHz with a maximum displacement of 20µm peak-to-peak.
Vibrations multiaxes
We have up to 3 axes of control which allows us to control up to 3 vibrators (electrodynamic or electrohydraulic) simultaneously.
Driving is done in sinus, random, or recopy of road signals, and on force, displacement or acceleration signals.
