Model 1216 Electrodynamic Shaker

The Glotech/Ling Model 1216VH Shaker is designed as performance, wideband, air-cooled shaker for vibration testing of medium sized specimens over the frequency range up to 3000Hz. The shaker employs Ling’s field-proven metallic half-loop flexures and high stiffness linear recirculating ball bearings for armature guidance. Heavy duty/ hexagonal head raised armature table inserts provide rigid, fettle-free attachment to test fixtures.

The 1216VH body suspension incorporates Ling’s field proven Lin-E-AirTM pneumatic isolation system that suspends the body on air springs located at the trunnions. This systemfeatures linear bearings that restrain and guide the body motion in the thrust axis, simplifying rotation of the shaker and alignment with auxiliary horizontal tables. The low natural frequency of this body suspension system virtually eliminates the need for expensive reaction masses and bases.

The 1216 can also be ordered in a pedestal base(1216V) for combined environment testing(i.e. AGREE) or with a slip table assembly in a variety of stand alone and combined base options to suit your specific requirements.

The shaker is air-cooled and includes as standard equipment fifteen feet of flexible duct and a remotely located cooling blower. The remote blower serves to minimize heat rejection and noise in the area adjacent to the shaker.
