MINIATURE / MODAL SHAKERS
Miniature / Modal Shakers (LDS – HBK & PM Shakers)
Miniature and Modal Shakers are precision electrodynamic vibration sources designed for accurate excitation of small components, structures, and assemblies. These compact systems are ideal for modal analysis, structural dynamics, vibration screening, and high-frequency testing, delivering reliable and repeatable performance in both laboratory and field environments.
At Adams Technologies, we offer a complete range of LDS miniature shakers from HBK (Hottinger Brüel & Kjær) along with Permanent Magnet (PM) Shakers from DynaLabs, ensuring the right solution for every testing requirement.
Applications:
- MODAL SHAKERS:- Components, machinery, vehicles testing
- Modal analysis of structures, Aerospace Testing, Aircraft testing, Automotive testing,
- Permanent Magnet Shakers: Vibration testing of micro parts, assemblies, and electronics
- Sensor calibration, modal testing, shock testing, fatigue & resonance testing,
- R&D
Permanent Magnet (PM) Shakers — DynaLabs
Permanent Magnet Shakers are compact, high-performance electrodynamic shakers designed for general-purpose vibration testing, modal analysis, and R&D applications.
They offer an excellent balance of portability, simplicity, and performance, making them ideal for laboratories and field testing.
How PM Shakers Work
PM shakers operate on the electrodynamic principle, where an armature coil moves within a permanent magnetic field to generate controlled vibration.
Unlike conventional electromagnetic shakers, they:
- Do not require a field power supply
- Are more energy-efficient
- Offer simpler and faster setup
Key Features (PM Shakers)
- Plug-and-Play Operation (selected models with integrated amplifier)
- Compact & Lightweight Design for easy transport and setup
- Wide Frequency Range up to 15,000 Hz
- Flexible Mounting with adjustable trunnion base
- High DUT Capacity despite small size
- Built-in Safety Features (over-travel & over-current protection)
- Cooling Support for extended operation
- CE Certified for quality and safety compliance
