Description
MAUL-THEET’s Large test stand provides an ideal foundation for precise measurement and test setups for evaluating larger components and assemblies. It offers ample space for up to nine articulated stands of the MT series, which can be added as needed — the 420MT for smaller sensors such as measurement microphones and automatic modal hammers, and the 650MT for larger instruments such as laser Doppler vibrometers.
The articulated arms allow flexible and stable alignment of multiple sensors simultaneously — ideal for acoustic, vibration, or temperature-related measurements on larger test specimens. Thanks to the mechanical clamping force generation, the system remains insensitive to temperature fluctuations and is therefore also suitable for use in climate chambers.
With its robust construction and precise adjustability, the large test stand provides a reliable foundation for measurement tasks where high stability, repeatability, and ease of handling are essential.
