Configurable front-end and a selection of laser sensor heads

The VibroFlex modular vibrometer comprises the configurable front-end Connect with a 7” multi touch screen and a selection of laser sensor heads. Connect is the hub for decoding raw measurement data in displacement, velocity and acceleration, signal conditioning and data interfacing - both analog and digital. The modular concept simplifies handling and parametrization without touching the sensors and hence influencing the measurement procedure. With the optional VibroLink digital interface to the VibSoft data acquisition and analysis software, the system is ready to go.

Patented QTec® powerful on all surfaces

Always stable signal, 20 dB better SNR for faster and clearer results without post-processing: QTec® laser vibrometers use multi-path interferometry and reception diversity for recombining the best readings from different perspectives for faster and more consistent results  while avoiding the need for averaging. This safe laser technology is perfect for challenging applications such as NDT, biomedical, long distance displacement measurements, quasi-static displacement measurement and shaker feedback control. The patented and highly innovative technology QTec® makes vibration measurements faster, easier and more reliable than ever - for the most robust, unambiguous results.
