GRAPHTEC CORPORATION

Out line Out line Recently, improvement of product durability becomes more important as a development theme for the electronics equipments and industrial equipments, so the drop down test, vibration test, mechanical shock test and environment test have been performed more frequently. Especially for the durability test for mechanical movement parts and driving parts, several ten thousands times or several thousands hours durability test are often performed.Based on these backgrounds, high speed sampling and long time data capturing and simultaneous measurement for several phenomena (voltage, temperature and high voltage) are strongly required for the measurement equipments. Also for the long time durability test for multiple products, it is required that the number of test equipment needs to be increased, so compact and reasonable price measurement equipments are required for capturing of these test data.

We provide the midi LOGGER GL900 that is an 8 channels isolation input for safe measurement for these various product tests. Further more, the multifunction input which corresponds to 500V DC high voltage, humidity, pulse and logic input for measurement of various phenomena.

Application・ Drop down test・ Shock test・ Vibration test

Application・ Durability test・ Tension/Compression test・ Environment test

High speed phenomena such as the drop down test and the mechanical shock test can be measured with 1ms or faster high speed sampling then stored to internal RAM for max. 1 million points. Also all channels are simultaneously sampled without time difference between channels, it is possible to check the correlation of each parts.Further more, 1ms to 1min slow sampling is for the durability test, and large size 256MB internal flash memory or external USB memory can store long time measurement.
