Vibration Control Systems Hardware Platforms Spider-81 Premium Vibration Controller Spider-81 The Spider-81 is the flagship model; all other Crystal Instruments controllers have evolved from it. This 4th generation hardware is highly modular, distributed and scalable. Each Spider-81 has 8 analog input and 4 analog output channels. Analog monitoring channels serve an attached oscilloscope. Eight digital I/O pairs are provided for custom applications. The Spider-81 features a bright front panel LCD that displays system status and test information. Real-time status such as control RMS or...

Shown here are the Spider-80XA35, the Spider-HUB, the Spider-NAS, and 9 Spider-80X front-ends The Spider-80X is designed for vibration control, machine monitoring, and data acquisition. Spider-80X The Spider-80X, a compact package, is designed for application in three fields: dynamic data acquisition, vibration control, and machine monitoring. It features eight analog input channels and two channels that may be software selected as analog outputs for vibration control or tachometer inputs for the analysis of rotating machinery. A single Spider-80X frontend is a complete two-output...

Spider-100 The Spider-100 is specifically designed to perform all types of tests where the DUT is subjected to simultaneous vibration, temperature cycling, and variable humidity, including Highly Accelerated Stress Screening (HASS) and Highly Accelerated Life Testing (HALT). The Spider-100 controls temperature, humidity, and vibration harmoniously in a chamber and shaker system, which includes external heating/cooling and humidification/dehumidification systems. The communication between numerous devices is optimized by the Spider-100 in an integrated design to achieve high control...

Strain Gage Measurement The Spider-80SG Strain Gage Module 8 Strain Gage Inputs Output Channel Power Power Input Reset Button Ethernet Data Port Master/Slave Switch The Spider-80SG Strain Gage Measurement System The Spider-80SG is a front-end in the Spider-80X family. It can be used for strain measurement and many other type of sensors that require external power. VCS software fully supports the Spider-80SG front-end in all its testing types. Named for their networkable ability, the Spider series as well as the Spider-80SG share the flexibility of scaling up in channel count and...

Port Port Port Port Port Port Port Port Port 123456789 Spider-HUB Unit 1 Port 10 (For further cascading) By using superior Ethernet and time synchronization technology developed by Crystal Instruments, the Spider system can be extended to support up to 512 input channels. When the system is running with multiple module with hundreds of input channels, all data acquired are simultaneous and accurately phase matched. The phase match accuracy can be less than 1 degree within the normal testing frequency range. By have such high phase match, the frequency response...

Dedicated Mini Computer Vibration Control Systems Control Loop Unique Features Network with Time Sync Control Loop The Spider platform is based on a fourth generation DSP centralized architecture. Analog Input Signal Conditioning Digital Output Hardware per US Patent 7,302,354 applies two ADCs to each input channel. Latest Hardware Design The Spider front-ends have voltage, IEPE and charge inputs which are ideal for shock, vibration, and acoustic measurement, strain or general purpose voltage measurement. The internal flash memory stores test configuration data for controlling up to...

DSP knows how to pick the data from either A or B path, and "stitch" them together. Simple Network Connection Ethernet connectivity allows Spiders to be located far from their host PC. This distributed structure greatly reduces noise and electrical interference in the system. A single PC can monitor and control multiple controllers over a network. Since the control processing and data recording are executed locally inside the controller, the network connection does not affect control reliability. With wireless network routers, a PC connects easily to the Spiders remotely via Wi-Fi. Time...

Designed for High Performance Control By using enhanced control algorithms and a simplified DSP architecture, the feedback loop time of Sine and Random control are greatly reduced to a 10 ms latency. Reduced control loop time improves performance for resonance search and tighter control for a structure with high-Q resonances. It also provides faster adaptive responses for better safety protection. Ease of Use The Spider software is further improved at the user interface level. More graphical guidance, wizards, and tools are available to simplify test setup. The interface has been...

Vibration Control Systems Software Solutions EDM (Engineering Data Management) is available in English, Japanese, Simplified Chinese, Traditional Chinese, and Russian. A Wide Range of Software Functions in Vibration Control and Signal Analysis The Crystal Instruments vibration control system (VCS) software is designed for a wide range of vibration and shock testing customers. The same software suites support from as few as two inputs up to 512 input channels with multiple drive output capability. Software solutions for vibration control include Sine, Resonance Search Track & Dwell (RSTD),...

Step 2: When an alarm event happens, the customized string, "Exceeding Limit" will be sent to the EDM Cloud email service. Step 3: User will receive an alarm email Easy Network Configuration Intelligence has been built into the software so that the hardware devices on the network can be detected and accessed with little effort. A Security Access Code (SAC) is used to protect unauthorized access to the hardware on the network. Multi-Tab and Multi-Screen Support To support the high channel count system that may display up to hundreds of signals, the software is designed to support multiple...
