Testing satellites, avionics, military electronics, hazardous materials and combined space simulation are typical of the complex applications satisfied by LDS V900 series shakers. Used worldwide in clean room (can be certified to federal standard 209 Class 100000) and controlled environments, they combine closed loop water cooling with the industry's most advanced armature fabrication.
The V900 series offers a wide frequency range when used in conjunction with our DPA-K amplifiers.
A unique long-stroke rolling-strut armature suspension system ensures excellent control of cross-axial and rotational movement. The high acceleration conditions of shock and random testing and the need for low mass make the design of the armature critical.
To provide ultimate reliability and maximum strokes reaching 63.5mm (2.5) LDS adopts aerospace technology, constructing the coil from composite resin and carbon fibre. Compared with the induction ring method used by other manufacturers, LDS water-cooled wound coil systems deliver excellent low frequency performance, with relatively modest amplifier output.
V900 series shakers are efficient in a wide range of humidity and temperature conditions. Shaker bodies are hermetically sealed and pressurised to provide static load support up to 5000 kg (11000 lbs). Operational costs are generally low as the closed loop cooling system eliminates water losses and reduces the need for expensive air conditioning. The capabilities of these shakers can be extended with the addition of a slip table, available as an option on all models.
