General Description

The Computer Controlled Torsional Vibration Unit, "MEVTC" is designed to study torsion suffered by some shafts with rotation motion, apart from studying the torsional rigidity and the behavior of a torsional vibration system with one, two or three discs of inertia.

The main elements of the "MEVTC" unit are a bar made of steel with a diameter of 6 mm and a series of discs of inertia, which rest on pillars with bearings. The system will behave differently in function of the arrangement and number of inertia masses acting on the unit.

The system is subjected to a vibration generated by the exciter accionado por un motor eléctrico. The excitation angles can vary. The software controls the speed of the excitation of the motor, depending on the experiment to be performed.

They measure the angle rotated by the steel bar in the position of the pillar to which it is associated. Similarly, the oscillatory motion curves that define the system are obtained from these sensors.

On the other hand, The function of that damper is to lessen the vibrations created by the exciter.

This Computer Controlled Unit is supplied with the EDIBON Computer Control System (SCADA), and includes: The unit itself + a Control Interface Box + a Data Acquisition Board + Computer Control, Data Acquisition and Data Management Software Packages, for controlling the process and all parameters involved in the process.
