Tensor 900 is a fully contained multi-axis vibration test system capable of precise control of all six degrees of freedom through a 5 kHz bandwidth. The system can reproduce real world vibration environments by simultaneously exciting all three linear translations as well as all three rotations, to a frequency level never before achieved. This unprecedented performance has been made possible through the use of Team Corporation’s expertise in hydrostatic bearing design and multi-axis system engineering.

By coupling electrodynamic shakers to the moving element with hydrostatic bearings, TENSOR™ has the performance to produce true multi-axis excitation to frequency levels previously attainable only in a single axis. The TE6-900 uses dynamic control of all six degrees of freedom to precisely reproduce the desired response, from 10 through 5 kHz. This also minimizes the moving mass of the table, which results in a more efficient use of available shaker power.
The unique arrangement of shakers around and under the moving table facilitates dynamic con-trol of mode shapes resulting in better control. This feature offers unparalleled control precision, taking advantage of the sophisticated algorithms that form the basis of contemporary test control-ler software.
