VIBRATION MONITORING

Flexibility and increasing cost pressures have been an important topic
for years when it comes to vibration monitoring of manufacturing and
assembly processes and the automation of test rigs. This situation
forces companies involved in plant and equipment construction to use as
many rationalisation measures as possible. Development in the field bus
sector offers the potential for innovation and cost saving. In order to
be able to make use of this potential, signal processing must satisfy
new demands. The solution for signal processing is called ”PME” - the
intelligent product line for industrial measurement technique. The PME
range of products offer different types of modules for recording of all
measured quantities relevant to processing, such as force,
displacement, pressure, temperature, speed, frequency and torque.

HBM Force Transducers measure static and dynamic tensile and pressure
loads - and virtually without any displacement. Force Transducers can
be supplied in the most varied of designs and classes of accuracy.
Typical application areas include test bench technology, e.g. measuring
force to check material quality and automation technology, e.g. for
vibration monitoring quality features when reshaping or bonding. HBM’s
own DKD calibration laboratory mirrors the company’s competence in the
area of force measurement.

Our commitment to continuously better the quality of our vibration
monitoring products is met by maintaining a superior supplier chain.
Not to mention really listening to market needs. Since applications
are rarely the same, Durham Instruments adapts and customizes
products to meet the demands of any application. With a
complete team effort, Durham Instruments is able to combine technical
expertise with the sensitivity of any situation.

The MVD 2510 can supply up to four load cells connected in parallel.
Apart from the high quality DC amplifier, the instrument also has a
digital filter which, with 0.05Hz, effectively suppresses even low
frequency container vibrations. Two limit switches are available for
supervisory functions which, for example, enable overflow vibration
monitoring or a simple dosage control to be provided. The freely
scaleable analogue output offers further ways of obtaining
individualised signal conditioning.
