Multi-Axial Shaking Table (MAST) Simulation Table System

Select image to enlarge The Multi-Axial Shaking Table (MAST) Simulation Table Systems are designed for vibration testing of a wide range of specimens. Vibration input can be generated in up to six degrees of freedom (6DOF), either individually or simultaneously.

Multi-Axial Shaking Table (MAST) Simulation Table Systems can be used for a variety of applications:

• Durability Testing
• Performance Evaluation
• Squeak and Rattle Evaluation

Multi-Axial Shaking Table (MAST) Simulation Table Systems have the following characteristics:

• Low operating noise
• Reliability
• Durable design
• Wide range of applications software

Durability Testing

Field measured data can be reproduced on the MAST system without the need for a complete vehicle. As a result, a test that previously took months to run on the proving ground can be carried out within days in the laboratory.

Performance Evaluation

Multi-Axial Shaking Table (MAST) Simulation Table Systems are used as vibration input systems to test the performance of components in a realistic operating environment. For example, the interior of a vehicle, the operating performance of seat belt reactors, seat track and electrical adjustment systems can be determined.

Squeak and Rattle Evaluation

In the laboratory, MAST systems can be driven using random excitation applied to all axes to excite all the squeaks and rattles in components under test such as instrument panels.
