VIBMEC current activities include:
- NVH optimization consulting, such as: vibration isolation, component strength optimization, failure modes, resonance frequency shifting;
- root cause analysis on mechanical components and mechanical structures;
- design, verification and Finite Element validation of fixtures for shaker tests. Fixture manufacturing, if not performed by the customer, can be done by partner manufactures in short time;
- experimental modal analysis, which can be carried out both in our laboratory or at the customer’s site. Vibration modes can be found by experiments performed with shaker or impact hammer excitation; operational modal analysis is performed when input force cannot be measured;
- shaker vibration testing, on one or more axes by rotating fixtures and/or slip table;
- vibration testing with climatic chamber, for thermal/vibration stress coupling (temperature and humidity control);
- mechanical shock testing of medium to large-sized components in accordance with automotive industry test profiles (e.g. ISO 16750-3:2023, half-sine pulse up to 100 g for 11 ms);
- material and component tests in climatic chamber;
- pyroshock testing for the qualification of aerospace devices;
- on-site vibroacoustic measurements, using VIBMEC equipment for both diagnostics and shaker test profile synthesis (Mission Synthesis);
- support for design and commissioning of sensors for diagnostics and monitoring;
- dynamic characterization of anti-vibration mounts according to UNI EN ISO 10846;
- acoustic intensity measurements according to ISO 9614.
