This BK Connect option analyses product sound quality using parameters that closely relate to the complete human experience of the sound, rather than using purely physical quantities such as sound pressure. The software can analyze recorded measurements using sound quality metrics such as ‘loudness’. Users can filter the sound using
This BK Connect option performs order analysis on sound and vibration signals, detecting sound and vibration patterns that are caused by inherent instabilities and imbalances in reciprocating or rotating machines. By relating the sound and vibration data to revolutions of moving parts, this software improves the engineer’s ability to find
This BK Connect option performs order analysis on sound and vibration signals, detecting sound and vibration patterns that are caused by inherent instabilities and imbalances in rotating or reciprocating machines. The software analyses raw time signals that have been recorded from transducers via data acquisition hardware and a PC computer.
Adding the BK Connect Calculation option to BK Connect Data Processing Type 8403 or BK Connect Data Processing Specialist Type 8404 adds advanced calculation options, while performing fast Fourier transformation (FFT) and overall level analysis. The calculation elements for the process chain are function statistics function operators scaling with unit conversion frequency weighting complex
This BK Connect application performs 1/n-octave - or constant percentage bandwidth (CPB) - analysis. Data can be acquired from just one and up to hundreds of channels connected via data acquisition hardware to a PC, which records the signals. This software analyses the time data as it is replayed. It can
This BK Connect option adds time correlation, amplitude demodulation – or envelope analysis – and infinite impulse response (IIR) filter to BK Connect Data Processing Type 8403 or BK Connect Data Processing Specialist Type 8404 for analysis of the vibration produced by a machine. The purpose is to find changes in the vibration pattern or
BK Connect Data Processing Specialist Type 8404 enables specialists to create process chains and analyze data immediately or save those chains as templates. Test engineers and operators (using the Type 8403 license) can quickly and easily make live measurements or load recorded data for post-processing using the pre-defined process chains. Specialists can
BK Connect Data Processing Type 8403 focuses on the operator’s and test engineer’s role, knowing that their use of the data acquisition and analysis software differs from the sound and vibration (S&V) specialist. Operators require the ability to quickly and easily load recorded data for post-processing or perform real-time analysis using
This software enables any measurements made using PULSE™LabShop to be labelled with metadata and saved to a database. This safe and orderly data storage gives access to the data across an organization – and even spanning the world. Efficient searching and inspection helps you find specific datasets and analyses, enabling
BK Connect Time Data Recorder is designed with users’ individual tasks in mind. The usage of the application is streamlined for both the test engineer and the specialist. In the lab, the engineer sets the triggers and parameters for the test and creates a template; during testing, the user executes
BK Connect Hardware Setup is designed so that test engineers and specialists can create and save custom, reusable set-ups without tying up the other acquisition or analysis licenses. The set-ups can be loaded and used by a technician in the lab or on location, wherever the testing needs to be
These options can be added to your existing Data Viewer Type 8400 application to enable access to files from our legacy platforms, standard and third-party test formats and FE models. The data is safely transferred to and from the BK Connect platform without risking data loss or corruption, ensuring that
BK Connect Data Viewer is a free application that provides a user-focused structure. It gives a streamlined workflow for comparing results from either the internal database or loaded from an external file, and the tools to generate your final report. This application is the basic framework for all BK Connect
PULSE IDAe data acquisition hardware can be used directly with Test for I-deas measurement tasks. All measurement tasks are supported including Stationary Processing, Transient Processing and Sine Measurements. The PULSE time file management software, Type 7789, enables importing time history files saved in the Test for I-deas native format (.ati).
This BK Connect application computes the shock response spectrum (SRS) of a test object from transient events in the time domain such as pyroshocks or structural impacts. It enables you to determine the damage potential of the transient events and to predict whether the structure will survive such shocks. The
This application allows you to perform a complete visual and numerical comparison of two modal models, typically a test model versus a finite element (FE) model. The complete workflow process is intuitive, yet flexible, and guides you efficiently through geometry alignment, degree of freedom (DOF) mapping, comparison, vector comparison, mode
Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) modules BZ-8550 – BZ-8554 provide damage indicators, mode tracking, drift analysis and automatic file uploading and processing. Damage detection is done in the physical domain using state-space models to ensure robust and reliable damage predictions. This is different to the traditional approach of using detection in
This PULSE software performs modal analysis by post-processing measurement data (made with BK Connect) on the output of the structure. Because there is no need to measure the input forces, it is ideal for testing under actual operating conditions, and in situations where it is difficult or impossible to control
This BK Connect application adds to BK Connect Modal Analysis Type 8420. It enhances your structural dynamics capabilities by adding polyreference analysis of multi-shaker measurements, or impact hammer measurements using triaxial or multiple single-axis accelerometers as references. It adds best-in-class mode indicator functions (MIFs), curve-fitters and validation tools to ensure
BK Connect Modal Analysis performs classical modal analysis by extracting modal parameters from Frequency Response Functions (FRFs) acquired using impact hammer or single shaker excitation of the structure. The intuitive highly customizable graphical user-interface (GUI) is built around the analysis workflow and guides you step-by-step through the analysis with visual
BK Connect Advanced Sine Measurements is used for easy set-up, acquisition and validation of FRFs and related functions using stepped sine excitation. Stepped sine measurement is a technique, where sine excitation and corresponding measurements are made at fixed frequencies one at a time. Stepped sine measurements are often used as
