Combining two single-axis Shake Table II units is a cost-effective method to build a dual-axis motion platform. With this Shake Table II XY configuration, you can explore more advanced dynamics analysis topics, and perform research relating to earthquake loss reduction.
The Shake Table II XY consists of two single-axis Shake Table II units mounted perpendicularly on top of each other. Each stage can travel ±7.6 cm. Driven by powerful motors, the Shake Table II XY can achieve an acceleration of 2.5 g when loaded with a 7.5 kg mass.
Furthermore, you can use the two Shake Table II from the XY configuration for other setups, i.e., serial and parallel, to support larger loads, or perform experiments with asynchronous excitation signals.
To complete your Shake Table II XY workstation, you need two Shake Table II units, and additional components that are sold separately:
The Quanser Shake Table I-40, an open architecture bench-scale single-axis earthquake simulator, is ideal for teaching structural dynamics and control, earthquake engineering, and other control topics related to civil engineering. With pre-loaded acceleration profiles of real earthquakes, such as Northridge and El-Centro, students can study the effects on buildings, bridges, and various materials.
The Quanser Shake Table II is a mid-size open-architecture single-axis earthquake simulator ideal for teaching structural dynamics, vibration isolation, feedback control, and other control topics related to earthquake, aerospace and mechanical engineering.
The Hexapod stands as a compact and robust six degrees of freedom parallel robotic motion platform, capable of high-acceleration movement handling up to 100 kg. Distinguishing itself from conventional Stewart platforms, this Hexapod utilizes advanced electrical motors, ensuring precision, responsiveness, and minimal maintenance.
