On-site measurements

We diagnose problems and validate solutions on-site.

On-site measurements follow the same approach as those conducted in the laboratory and involve performing experimental modal analysis to solve the most complex shock and vibration issues. We are equipped with all the necessary tools to carry out comprehensive diagnostics based on the problems presented by our clients and to validate our shock and vibration isolation solutions directly on-site. The precise measurement of consistent and relevant data is an essential requirement to obtain conclusive results, which will enable us to qualify our solutions for optimal protection of your systems and equipment.

By meeting users directly on-site and taking measurements under real conditions, I gain a better understanding of the clients’ expectations and the challenges to be addressed.

FAQ

What is the main objective of conducting on-site measurements?

The purpose of on-site measurements is to allow us to extract measured and measurable values in order to perform simulations based on input data, and then make proposals based on the output data. Ultimately, the goal is to verify that the calculations made beforehand match the results observed during the on-site testing.

What testing equipment is used to perform on-site measurements?

The equipment we use for our on-site measurements includes a 12-channel mobile data acquisition system, which allows for precise measurement of shocks and vibrations, as well as shock, pressure, and temperature recorders, which are specifically used for monitoring the transport of fragile items.
For the qualification of our damping solutions, we typically conduct drop tests, which allow us to take various measurements and collect a wealth of data.

In which cases should on-site measurements be performed rather than in a laboratory?

On-site measurements can be performed in two cases:

To diagnose shock and/or vibration issues by collecting all the data that will then allow us to conduct simulations.
To qualify our solutions on-site, by verifying that the proposed interface performs as expected.
