Make no compromise on testing efficiency and productivity. If all you need is an efficient sound and vibration analyzer, Simcenter™ Testxpress™ software combines the ease of use of a traditional analyzer with the high speed performance and measurement quality of an advanced measurement system. Simcenter Testxpress is an excellent solution for certifying products according to a wide range of vibration and acoustical ISO standards. It includes an easy-to-use interface and seamlessly integrates data acquisition and analysis.

Traditional analyzers are extremely flexible tools for  qualifying the noise, vibration or durability of products.  They are easy to operate and immediately show the fre-quency content of a vibration, sound or fatigue signal. They are, however, also very limited. Why restrict measurements to just two or four channels when productivity could be so much higher with eight channels or more? What about direct connectivity of all sensors; from standard accelerom-eters and microphones, strain gauges and temperature sensors to Global Positioning System (GPS)  receivers and controller area network (CAN) bus systems? How much could be gained by running Fast Fourier Transform (FFT), order, rainflow and octave analysis in real time and in parallel?

Simcenter Testxpress software is a no-compromise sound, vibration and durability analyzer. It combines the ease  of use of a traditional analyzer with the high-speed perfor-mance and quality of an advanced measurement system.  It is the perfect solution for a wide range of vibration and acoustical International Organization for Standardization (ISO) standards and comes with an easy-to-use interface. Simcenter Testxpress integrates 30 years of engineering experience and is part of a complete portfolio of scalable testing and engineering solutions.

Fit for the job from troubleshooting  to certification testing

Simcenter Testxpress has been designed for ease of use and optimal productivity for different types of vibration, acous-tics or durability related tasks, such as troubleshooting, verification work, mobile testing or qualification and  certification testing. Simcenter Testxpress addresses all industry needs – from automotive manufacturing or white goods to machinery components or business electronics.

The intuitive user interface is available in different lan-guages and the system displays all relevant parameters.  For the ISO certification testing, all checks and requirements from the ISO standards have been hard coded into the software so users need not worry about details; just clicking a few buttons will generate the ISO standardized report, allowing inexperienced operators to perform the tests.

With the interactive screen layout, users can drag-and-drop data, add displays and easily compare measurements. This provides a short learning curve and optimal efficiency.

Providing real-time power, faster testing  and easier diagnosis

Designed for optimal productivity, Simcenter Testxpress  provides the right combination of acquisition and analysis capabilities. The system shows instant results and saves  raw time data for backup or further postprocessing.

Simcenter Testxpress offers easy access to advanced online tools such as filtering, smoothing, averaging and a math-ematical combination of channels. In combination with specific solutions for ISO certification testing, it provides a full platform for all daily tasks and enables you to:

◆ Perform FFT, order, octave and throughput in parallel while displaying real-time results on screen

◆ Validate data quality on the spot – diagnose problems during measurements

The ideal tool for troubleshooting  and certification testing

Simcenter Testxpress features powerful capabilities to automate specific measurement campaigns, from measure-ment setup and dedicated postprocessing to the final report generation in MS Office, enabling you to:

◆ Automate measurement procedures from acquisition  to report

◆ Prepare measurement campaigns upfront and reduce setup and execution time

◆ Use predefined ISO templates for certification testing

◆ Lock critical parameters to safeguard data quality and consistency
