Product catalog summary
Overview: The document provides detailed specifications and guidelines for L.A.B. Transportation Simulators, which are used to test the durability of packages and products against shocks and vibrations during handling and transportation.
Transportation Simulator Features:
  • Adjustable frequency and fixed displacement.
  • Accommodates various package sizes.
  • Remote frequency control, easy installation, and low maintenance.
Test Levels:
  • Frequency range: 2-5 Hz (120-300 rpm).
  • Fixed displacement: 1 inch (25 mm).
  • Direction of vibration: Rotary (Circular).
  • Methods of motion include rotary, circular synchronous, non-synchronous, and vertical linear motion.
Foundation Requirements:
  • Machines should be mounted over main building support girders near columns.
  • Special foundations may be needed for larger machines or poor soil conditions.
  • Foundation blocks should be at least 10 times the machine load capacity, with higher ratios preferred for reduced disturbance.
  • Isolation systems require the natural frequency to be no greater than half the minimum machine frequency.
Concrete Mass and Anchor Bolt Specifications:
  • Concrete mass sizes and anchor bolt specifications are provided for various models (V100 to V8000).
  • Specifications include dimensions, quantity, diameter, and length of anchor bolts.
Utility Requirements:
  • Different models require varying power supplies, ranging from 110V/1Ph/60Hz to 230V/3Ph/60Hz.
Installation Recommendations:
  • Machines should be bolted to a suitable factory floor.
  • Steel slabs may be used as an economical alternative to concrete foundations.
  • Resilient materials should not be placed between the machine base and foundation.

OUR EQUIPMENT. YOUR SUCCESS. VIBRATION TESTING Foundation Requirement A good grade, reinforced concrete factory floor, which is at least 6" thick, is adequate for a rigid connection of most vibration package testing machines. It is always desireable to mount this type of of test system on a ground floor. When it is necessary to mount the machine on an upper floor, it should be done over one of the main building support girders and as near as possible to a column. Occasionally, either a larger machine, the presence of extremely sensitive equipment in the same area, or a unique soil condition which...
