Data Acquisition

Using state-of-the-art portable data acquisition systems, we capture dynamic field, customer site, and test specimen response data. This data is reduced with analysis systems and transformed into power spectral densities, shock response spectra, and other defined units by way of various precision engineering functions. The data may come from a shock, vibration, or environmental events ranging from pyrotechnic, mission life events, and mixed mode transportation.

Data acquisition equipment includes the complete collection, signal conditioning, analyzers, display, download, and print capable instrumentation required for data import/export manipulation and reporting. Climatic testing conditions can be simulated and monitored both on and off site. Test stress conditions include temperature, humidity, and altitude.

Data Recorders consist of Saver®, IST®, and Shockwriter® units. These units are capable of measurements in shock, vibration, temperature, and humidity analysis. Each unit is designed for incorporation into product or package for field analysis. Additionally, these data recorders are useful for on-site environmental measurement.

Shock Analyzers are available for use of on site or field data measurement. These Test Partner Shock Recorder Systems are capable of acquiring and analyzing multiple shock input and responses in a variety of shock pulse modes. Variable shock response data ranging from high G, short duration pyrotechnic to low G, low frequency seismic events may be recorded using these devices.

Spectrum Analyzers are also on hand to aid in the acquisition and interpretation of field data. This recorded data from interior or exterior sources may be measured and analyzed in defined engineering units.

On Site Laboratory test equipment exists at APT to provide a wide range of mechanical shock and vibration, as well as, environmental tests on products and packaging. Each test machine has full computer control and data acquisition capabilities. Specification testing and mechanical evaluations are precisely conducted within specified guidelines. Test specimens can be monitored for response to various stimuli during testing. Our computerized systems actively record test data from sensors, probes, and accelerometers. Once the testing has been completed, the results can be downloaded for analysis and printed for hard-copy reference.
