Spectral Dynamics, Inc.

Acquisition Control Peripherals: Enclosure housing an extremely powerful RISC processojaghardware r to perform real-time calculations and control TPD operation. ACP may house as few as one measurement card or as many as 10. Communicates with Host Via 100 Base T Ethernet. Figure to the right: Example of measurement card with 8 Input and 2 Output capabilities Measurement Channels: Each channel pair shares a 32 bit DSP. The DSP is automatically loaded with code based upon application. Each channel includes 4 overlapping Programmable Gain amplifiers to permit extraordinary measurement accuracy for each unique application. Each channel may be calibrated, permitting channel transportability. User may select One to 30 DAC Systems. Digital to Analog Systems: Each DAC system includes a 16 bit converter sampled at 204.8KSsec. All DAC systems include smoothing and anti-imaging filters to insure true analog quality signal generation free of harmonic content and distortion. Sine step increment is .00001 Hz. Expansion – Monitors & Channels: Start with 8 chs. Grow to 588, all simultaneously captured and displayed with virtually no phase shift. Add additional monitors to provide instant simultaneous access to hundreds of real-time data displays. Speed: All JAGUARs are capable of sampling all measurement channels at 102.4KS.sec. All channels are always simultaneous. Each data array produced always starts at the same exact data point. This is critical in time series analysis. SIGMADELTA converters do not intrinsically perform this way. Accuracy: Summing junctions are designed into the signal path that permit calibration constants to be employed for each of 18 input ranges. The software may then properly set zero DC levels dynamically while a test is running in Sine or Random applications so the channels may auto-range to ensure optimum use of the dynamic range for measurement accuracy. JAGUAR is the only system in the world capable of changing the input ranges during a sine test with no adverse affects to the data. Throughput Disk: May be included inside the ACP andor external to the ACP. As many as 6ea. 70Gbyte drives are permitted per ACP. Time histories are streamed through the MDSP3 Risc processor, resident in each ACP, in parallel to the stream of data to the host. Storage is continuous and contiguous even across disk boundaries. Gap free operation assures data have no discontinuities.

Versatile motion platform for applications such as driving and flight simulation, turret testing or teaching of subjects like Structural Dynamics or Robotics. Several available dimensions. Payloads up to 5 ton. Frequency range up to 20 Hz.

The Bump (SD B) Series Machines are used to simulate and evaluate the design and destructive testing of components, circuits, hybrids, and complete assemblies as it pertains to bump. There are 7 standard bump machine test systems available or we can also customize one to meet your needs. All our bump machines are pneumatically powered shock testers for accuraterepeatable laboratory and production impact testing. With suitable pulse generators, these bump machines can produce half sine wave shapes which meet the specifications of military, industrial, and individual test requirements. Generated waveforms comply with typical military specifications, including ISO, MILSTD-810, and customized method. They are used for both the commercial field and military applications; testing a wide variety of products from disk drives to wristwatches, and spark plugs to automotive sensors. Excellent wave form for small g level bump testing: The min g level for bump testing can extend up to 2.0g. Traditional mechanical bump machines can extend up to 5.0g. DUT mounting table: The table is made from aircraft aluminum with high strength and uniformity but light weight. It is guided by 4 guide rods to keep high stability. High precision guide: Chromium plated high precision guide rod and sliding bearings assembly ensure the guide system a long life. Mounting Table Drive System: Adopting a high frequency velocity air cylinder with pilot actuated valve can ensure a short shock distance. This can result in the same shock terminal velocity, which is generated by 1.5 meters drop distance, a normal free drop shock machine. A precision displacement transducer, controlled by software, ensures the precise repeating drop height to get accurate repeatability of shock test. Auto Shock control: MIS02 is control and measurement system. Please refer respective spec sheets for further information. Expending features: Bump frequency and shock energy specifications can be expanded in a customized machine.

Fremont, CA – The Advanced Research Products Group (ARPG) of Spectral Dynamics, Inc., today announced booking the first order for their new KRONOS-V System to General Motors. The facility is Powertrain & Advanced Engineering Group located in Wixom, Michigan. KRONOS-V is a dedicated turn-key system for true spectral KRONOS Vcontent-based, objective real-time engine knock analysis.KRONOS Gary Patterson, Staff Combustion Engineer for General Motors, well known and respected for his contributions to new engine design and combustion analysis, stated “After seeing the advanced knock detection and analysis system in operation I had to have one!” Patterson went on to say, “The real-time spectral display of knocking engine cycles is visually stunning! Its instant response and analysis gives me the real-time feedback I need. KRONOS-V is the first product which allows me to selectively remove non-combustion spectral content. It provides both visual results and control outputs in real-time.” The KRONOS-V Knock Analysis tool is an add-on for most combustion analysis and charge amp-based systems. It offers a range of channel counts and capabilities including: Engine Knock and Pre-Ignition, Closed-Loop Lights-Out Engine Mapping, Diesel Noise, and Transfer Function Analysis for Star ModalTM. KRONOS-V is an Automated Knock DetectionCalibrator Feedback System for multi-cylinder measurement & recording. KRONOS-V allows real-time spectral analysis of multiple knock events contained in cylinder pressure data or block mounted acoustic transducer data, with automated quantification of the signal contents for generation of triggers to external devices or programs. The data system uses broadband amplifiers and synchronously clocked high-resolution digitizers with auto tracking Nyquist anti-alias filters to provide spectral purity and prevent digital smearing of critical frequency domain data.KRONOS Mark Remelman, the ARPG Product Line Manager, and inventor of KRONOS, stated, “This revolutionary system significantly reduces the overhead and time to map an engine from weeks to hours using unattended “lights out” operation. Our patented Knock Detection capability will also significantly reduce the loss of engines during testing. ”
