39. Impulse Hammer- GK series

GK series impulse hammer is an excitation hammer which has a built-in force sensor to measure a natural vibration frequency or perform modal analysis of a mechanical structure.

More details

GK series impulse hammer is an excitation hammer which has a built-in force sensor to measure a natural vibration frequency or perform modal analysis of a mechanical structure.

-----

In addition to the GK-3100 for general purpose usage, the GK-2110 is an ultra compact type weighing of 4.8 g for excitation of small and light-weighted parts. For excitation of large structures such as automobile’s framework structure, the large type of the GK-4110G20 weighing of 1.1 kg is suitable. You can choose any one depending on your requirements.

-----

By mounting an accelerometer on a measurement object and hitting it with impulse hammer, excitation force signals from an impulse hammer and response acceleration signals from an accelerometer are input to an FFT analyzer to enable measurement of the frequency response function (natural frequency). Moreover, you can perform modal analysis of the object by sending the obtained frequency response function data to a PC in which modal analysis software is installed.

-----

GK-2110

-  As a light-weighted of 4.8g (when attached with a plastic hammer handle), the GK-2110 enables excitation for noise analysis from a small case of HDD or thin pipe in compressor etc. and its measures.
-  Up to around 20 kHz of excitation is available.
-  2 kinds of hammer handles are provided as standard to meet your requirements. The hammer with a plastic hammer handle can be used as an excitation for exceptionally-light measurement object. Whereas the hammer with aluminum hammer handle provides a large excitation force.

-------

GK-3100

-  Attaching an extender mass (provided as standard) on the GK-3100 (140 g as standard) weighs a total of 220 g. Only using the GK-3100 gives a wide range of excitation force.

-  Exclusive sensor amplifier is provided as standard.

-  4 kinds of impact tips are provided as standard. Excitation frequency can be changed according to requirements of your test structures.

------

GK-4110G20

- With the hammer mass of 1.1 kg, analysis of the vibration of the frame which affects the working accuracy and the excitation for the mode analysis of the white body of the automobile are possible.

- With built-in CCLD preamplifier, direct connection to analyzer is possible.
Four types of impact tips are included as standard. It is possible to change the vibration frequency according to the application.
