Challenge
The client required a custom testing environment to perform continuous vibration testing under predefined structural parameters. The primary engineering challenge was to maintain stable, long-term thermal conditions for the high-energy vibration exciters, preventing overheating and frequency drift during intensive test cycles.
Solution
Proximo designed and manufactured a specialized vibration test rig built strictly to individual customer specifications. The system integrates high-precision exciters paired with a dedicated air-cooling infrastructure, guaranteeing consistent thermal stabilization and absolute control over frequency outputs throughout the entire simulation process.
Scope of Work
Comprehensive engineering and mechanical development:
- Mechanical design of the robust test rig frame tailored to the customer’s technical specifications
- Integration of high-performance vibration exciters supporting predefined dynamic profiles
- Development and installation of an optimized, high-throughput air-cooling system
- Implementation of control architectures for precise frequency adjustment and monitoring
- System calibration, operational safety verification, and functional commissioning
Outcome
The deployed rig provides a highly reliable platform for structural fatigue validation. Thanks to the automated thermal cooling setup, the system maintains steady, repeatable operating conditions, enabling the client to execute high-precision verification of tested components under strictly controlled frequency loads.
