VibroMatrix® System 

New: Version 1.7 What's new?

VibroMatrix® is a PC based measuring system for typical vibration measuring applications at low and medium frequencies.

Why choosing VibroMatrix® ?

  • The system was designed for typical tasks of vibration measurement. No ballast by unwanted functionality. 

  • The system is modular which makes it particularly economic with lower channel numbers.

  • The necessary hardware is very compact which makes it particularly suited for mobile use.

  • Short installation and training time. After a few minutes you may start with the first measurement. 

  • Updates are free of charge. You will always have access to the latest software versions and thereby add new functions to your investment.

Typical fields of application are:

  • Vibration measurement and diagnosis at rotating machinery

  • Balancing of rotating parts

  • Building vibration measurement

  • Human vibration measurement

  • Production quality control

  • Laboratory measurements

  • Mobile measurements with notebook PC

Hardware: The only required hardware are one or more  InnoBeamer®  modules with one or two IEPE compatible accelerometers each.  The  InnoBeamer® modules convert the analog sensor signal into a USB compatible output signal.  IEPE compatible sensors are directly connected to the InnoBeamer® inputs whereas sensors with charge output can be connected via a Remote Charge Converter of  ICP1x0 series. 

Software: Signal conditioning is performed by the VibroMatrix® software. It consists of independent modules similar to common hardware instruments. The following software instruments are currently available:

Trial Version: The latest VibroMatrix version including all available software instruments can be downloaded here (download size approx. 5 MB). The installation becomes fully operational after software registration for the desired instruments. It can also be started in the Trainer mode for testing its functions free of charge with simulated signals.

Software Registration:  The latest software versions of the instruments are always available within the VibroMatrix package for free downloading. So you have access to the latest updates and added functions without paying again. For using these instruments with your InnoBeamer  a software key is needed. This software key can either be purchased or leased. A purchased or leased software instrument belongs to one or two channels of a particular InnoBeamer with a particular serial number. The registration information is stored inside the InnoBeamer. You can connect this InnoBeamer to any PC - it will always keep its registered instruments. 

Purchasing or leasing instruments: Each VibroMatrix instrument can be purchased individually. VibroMatrix instruments can also be leased for a limited usage period of 40 hours. Charging the instrument for 40 hours of use costs only 20 % of the full price. The instrument deducts time units of 10 minutes each only when it is in use.  Unused time units do not expire. 

Clone function: The software instruments feature a so-called Clone function which allows to copy an instruments with all its settings up to four times. Thus you don't need to type in all settings again if you want to change one parameter only. Cloning may be useful, for example, if you want to measure vibration acceleration, velocity and displacement simultaneously. 

 

System Components:

VibroMatrix System

  1. Piezoelectric sensors with IEPE output are directly connected to the PC by the USB adapter InnoBeamer. Piezoelectric sensors with charge output are connected with an in-line charge converter.

  2. InnoBeamers are connected with the USB-input of the PC. The PC supplies the InnoBeamer with energy. No external power supply is  necessary.

  3. The instruments are all working on the PC-screen at the same time. You can combine them at will. The operation is performed by mouse. The information you get is in real-time, high resolution and color.

  4. Event messengers enable the instruments to transmit messages about changes of measured values or other events.
