Controlled and efficient excitation of large structures.
From modal analysis to fatigue testing.


Do you need to ensure the stability and durability of your structures and systems under load and strain? Do you want to verify the properties of your products? Do you need modal exciters for tests in the lab or on-site? SPEKTRA finds the solution tailored to your needs for modal analysis, fatigue testing, or seismic simulations.

The SPEKTRA vibration control systems (VCS) for vibration test rigs and test applications such as modal excitation of large structures or buildings. This scalable controller family is based on powerful and future-proof components from SPEKTRA and National Instruments.

vibration control systems

‘APS Dynamics’ is a brand of SPEKTRA, a trusted name for long-stroke vibration exciters in the low-frequency range for decades. Despite their long stroke (158 mm), these models in the low-frequency range (< 200 Hz) are portable and offer various operating modes thanks to a wide range of accessories. They are ideal for testing large structures such as bridges and buildings outside of a laboratory.
