Testing Rotating Equipment: Slip Rings or Telemetry.. Which is Best?

From oil and gas to power generation and beyond, rotating equipment, such as turbines, generators, and other machinery, plays a vital role throughout a number of industries. To keep this equipment on-line and running at peak performance, operating data is collected as a part of preventive maintenance, performance measurement, and/or

Utilizing Telemetry to Test Rotating Equipment

From oil and gas to power generation and beyond, rotating equipment, such as turbines, generators, and other machinery, plays a vital role throughout a number of industries. As a result, keeping this equipment on-line and operating at maximum efficiency is critical. To keep this equipment on-line and running at peak

What is Finite Element Amalysis?

Finite Element Analysis (FEA) is a versatile tool that empowers engineers to make informed decisions, enhance product performance, and address structural challenges by providing detailed insights into the behavior of complex systems. FEA plays a pivotal role in predicting the behavior of structures, components, products/assemblies, and materials under various conditions.

What is Modal Analysis?

Modal analysis is a powerful technique in structural engineering and dynamics that aims to understand the dynamic behavior of a structure by identifying its natural frequencies, mode shapes, and damping ratios. This method plays a crucial role in assessing the structural integrity, performance, and response of various mechanical and civil

Ensuring New Product Success

Test data plays a pivotal role in the validation of product designs, serving as a critical tool to ensure the functionality, reliability, and overall effectiveness of a product. Designers and engineers rely on test data to simulate real-world operating conditions, identify potential issues, and refine designs before reaching the production

Six D Testing & Analysis and Wolf Star Technologies Announce Partnership

We’re pleased to announce a partnership with Wolf Star Technologies. This collaboration brings new capabilities for determining the actual loads of structures. These measurements are obtained from tests involving representative duty cycles or customer usage enabling True-Load to back calculate real world loads. Furthermore, these loads can be applied to

Physical Testing is Alive and Well Throughout the Engineering World

In this digital world, it may be hard for some to believe that there’s still a place for anything manual or physical – especially in the engineering realm. And, while it’s true that today’s technologies have cut into the dependence on physical testing, real-world data remains the lifeblood of the

Digital 3D Analysis Models: How Much Detail is Needed?

Simulation plays an increasingly important role in design, testing, and analysis. By constructing 3D digital models, engineers can better understand and predict the structural integrity associated with a product or structure along with its subsystems, and components. This enhances the validation of designs or helps to determine, and isolate failure
