Development of a Direct Drive Type Exciter and Performance Evaluation

직접구동형 가진기의 개발 및 성능평가

The purpose of this study is to design and manufacture a vibration exciter, which can be used in the education and research for the vibration engineering. For this purpose, a direct drive type vibration exciter is developed, which consists of a motor, an inverter, eccentric rotating sleeves and two excitation plates. Developed exciter is tested on some dynamic characteristics to evaluate its excitation performance. Test results show that the developed machine can excite bodies on the horisontal vibrating plates in x,y direction by the constant displacement amplitude in the frequency range below 50Hz, which confirm that the exciter can be used as a vibration testing machine in the low frequency range.
