The Puma Vibration Control and Analysis System from Spectral Dynamics, Inc. is designed for comprehensive vibration testing and analysis, featuring a scalable architecture that supports 4 to 32 input channels with ICP. It utilizes a powerful multiple DSP architecture and offers extensive capabilities for signal, transient, and modal analysis, as well as various control methods including random, sine, and classical shock control. The system can analyze signals up to 40 kHz with 12,800 lines, making it suitable for both production screening and R&D prototype testing. The system is equipped with a user-friendly graphical interface that allows customization for different user levels and includes security features to manage access. It supports integration with other laboratory equipment and offers automation capabilities through a client/server architecture, enabling remote monitoring and control via local networks or the Internet. The Puma system is built on decades of expertise in vibration control technology, ensuring high-quality data acquisition and signal generation with advanced adaptive control features that enhance testing accuracy.
PUMA / COUGAR Vibration Control and Analysis System
Revolutionizing Vibration Testing
PUMA (Cougar for portability) utilizes Spectral Dynamics' innovative Computer-Aided Test Suite™ (CATS) architecture. Both take full advantage of the PC's powerful Intel processor and Windows XP technology. Optimized for multi-tasking, and founded on industry connectivity and data interchange protocols, the CATS make your entire test and validation process more timely and efficient.
Versatile Test Capabilities
The Computer-Aided Test Suite™ vibration control and analysis applications were designed to meet a wide range of test requirements. With scalable hardware and software the Vibration Control and Analysis System combines the simplicity of operation required for production screening with the power and versatility required for R&D prototype testing.
Superior Control and Analysis
PUMA will meet the most stringent test requirements. PUMA incorporates high quality data acquisition and signal generation hardware designed with the latest floating point DSP technology with patented digital vibration control methods. ADAPTIVE CONTROL permits PUMA to "see the future" and adjust the control speed in real time to the next measure of error that is about to happen. This 'look ahead' feature allows the PUMA to control problems lesser systems don't even understand.
Built By the Experts
Spectral Dynamics patented the FFT analyzer in 1968, and the digital vibration control system in 1969. Over the next eight generations of systems, SD perfected and patented industry-leading vibration system technologies. Now PUMA revolutionizes test methodology from setup to report and delivery.
