Mini-Shakers

Models 2004E & 2007E

These electrodynamic exciters are small, portable permanent magnet shakers. They are ideally suited for general purpose vibration testing of small components and sub-assemblies, or as excitation transducers for modal, academic, biomedical, or laboratory research. The shakers feature extremely rugged suspension systems using carbon fiber composite leaf armature flexures. Isolated linear bearings provide low distortion and eliminate the need for reaction wrenches when mounting loads to the armature. A trunnion base with EasyTurn™ handles allows for convenient mounting and positioning. Each transducer is delivered with a variety of 10-32 threaded nylon stingers which provide an attachment mechanism to test articles as electrical isolation.

Benefits:

• Up to 7 pounds (31 N) pk sine force
• Up to 0.5 inch (1.27 cm) stroke
• Payloads up to 2 lbs (0.91 kg)
• 10-32 threaded mounting insert
• Wide frequency band operation up to 11kHz
• Trunnion mounting base w/ EasyTurn™ handles

Applications:

• General vibration testing
  • Small components
  • Sub-assemblies
  • Biomedical
• Experimental modal analysis
• Educational laboratory research

The compact design and portability make the 2004E/2007E mini-shakers a very versatile, accessible, and popular solution for test and instrumentation engineers. They are ideally suited for general purpose vibration testing of small components, electronic assemblies, Integrated Circuits and Printed Circuit Boards, or as an excitation transducer for experimental modal, academic, biomedical or laboratory research.
