PUMA / COUGAR Vibration Control and Analysis System

PDFDownload technical specifications

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 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.

• 4 to 32 input channels with ICP
• Analysis to 40 kHz with 12,800 lines
• Scalable h/w and s/w architecture
• Powerful Multiple DSP architecture
• Comprehensive vibration test capabilities
• Extensive laboratory integration and test automation features

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.

Spectral Dynamics, Inc. is a leading worldwide supplier of systems and software for vibration testing, structural dynamics, and acoustic analysis. Spectral Dynamics' products are used for design verification, product testing and process improvement by manufacturers of all types of electronic and mechanical products.
