Articulated arms | Hörger & Gässler

MAUL-THEET, in collaboration with the company Hörger and Gässler, has developed two mechanical articulated arms to meet our various requirements.

Description

The blue articulated arms are produced exclusively for MAUL-THEET. They manage to maintain the specified weights, even in climate chambers from -40°C to 150°C. This means that all MAUL-THEET customers can now use the full advantages of the flexible setup of an articulated arm, even in climate chambers, such as when setting up our automatic modal hammers vImpact. We have also developed an XXL magnetic holder for the XXL arm, which is also available exclusively from MAUL-THEET in conjunction with the Manfrotto quick connector on the head. Not only can our vImpact-2003 be perfectly aligned with this setup, we also use it to bring the Polytec IVS500 laser into position. When ordering a vImpact 60 series, a small articulated arm with a magnetic holder is always included.

Mechanical articulated arm 420MT

With a holding force of up to 5kg, the 420MT is perfect for the precise positioning of small measuring devices such as our vImpact-64 as well as microphones and temperature sensors. Due to the mechanical clamping force generation, it is ideally suited for use in climate chambers.

Mechanical articulated arm 650MT

For larger devices, the 650MT produced for us is an excellent choice. With a holding force of up to 15kg, it is ideal for positioning heavier devices such as laser Doppler vibrometers and also holds our vImpact-2004 stably on the measurement object with an impact force of up to 2500N.

Test frame for measuring smaller components

The optimal set for measuring small test specimens! With two 420MT and one 650MT, the test frame is ideally equipped to hold the necessary measuring equipment for vibration measurement of small parts. The dampened feet isolate the frame from its surroundings in the best possible way in order to exclude disturbing factors from the surroundings. The elastic support is heat-resistant and is therefore also suitable for analyzing modal variables at high temperatures.
