MTS Roehrig EMA Damper Test Systems-6

Innovative Electro-magnetic Actuator Technology SYD systems apply pure sinusoidal inputs to damper specimens using a rotary electric motor driving mechanical linkage through a scotch yoke. This mechanism features a timing belt and pulley drive transmission that eliminates backlash and minimizes noise and vibration. The timing belt also serves as a reliable and an inexpensive “mechanical fuse” against excessive peak damper forces. Displacement is set through adjustments to the scotch yoke. A. Actuator shaft B.
