Technology

The OMS LaserScan LS01 is a high-quality and high-value laser Doppler vibrometer that is ideal for comprehensive predictive maintenance and analysis. A scanning laser vibrometer is necessary when it's impractical or dangerous to use traditional handheld vibrometers. 

It's a non-contact tool that relies on a computer-controlled laser to measure vibration levels on a surface. It does so by outputting detailed vibration maps as well as illustrations and animations of the dynamic behavior of the object under study.

How do Laser-Based Vibrometers Work?

So exactly how does a laser-based vibrometer work? It uses a camera to sequentially scan a laser beam across the object's surface for imaging purposes. This allows for the calculation of parameters such as animated deflection shapes and wave propagation in both frequency and time domains. Such an ability comes in especially handy where it is not feasible to conduct contact measurement, such as with microstructures, complex objects, and high-temperature or other conditions that pose a risk to human safety. 

But it matters the type of laser vibrometer you use. The OMS LaserScan LS01 is a high-quality and value laser non-contact vibration measurement system. By planning the scanning points of a plane with the software, the vibration of the whole plane can be quickly obtained.

The high accuracy and wide measurement range make the OMS LaserScan LS01 suitable for a wide range of applications in the aerospace, automotive, computer and information equipment, machinery, and even musical instrument industries.

OMS LaserScan LS01 main features include the following:

• Ａ velocity measurement range of 5 μm/s to 800 mm/s
• A frequency range of 0.1Hz~20kHz
• An operating range of 0.5~5m

It also has no beam focusing and surface treatment of the object to be measured. These features make LaserScan more convenient to use.

SLDV Laserscan software

To properly analyze data collected using a laser vibrometer, the proper software is necessary. We recommend SLDV Laserscan Software. An example of the software being used in analysis is displayed below: 

SLDV LaserScan software allows you to plan scanning points and perform vibration measurement analysis, including time domain, FFT analysis, and FRF. It also provides operation deflection shape analysis, modal analysis, and 2D and 3D animations, making it a practical and powerful analysis software.
