The latest Experimental Modal Analysis Seminar was held from November 8-9, 2022 in Vancouver, British Columbia. Crystal Instruments partnered with Dalimar Instruments to present these modal training seminars in Canada. During the seminar, Dr. Peter Avitabile covered the basics of modal measurements, impact hammer tests, and shaker tests. The modal training seminar participants learned the theory behind techniques, performed measurements, and received hands-on training experience.
Read MoreThe implementation of MQTT in EDM allows users to monitor the status of environmental tests (vibration, temperature, humidity) executed in EDM VCS, measurements taken in EDM DSA, and remotely operate a test.
Read MoreDigital Input and Output (DIO) is the most popular interface used to communicate and interact with external instruments. Each digital input and output channel has only two states, high and low. The Spider can respond to the state of a digital input channel from an external instrument (e.g., an amplifier, an analyzer) or send a digital output to an external instrument to urgently shut down a device.
Read MoreThe CI Data File Reader API consists of two DLL files that can be integrated with custom software to directly read and extract data from an ATFX file. This article will demonstrate how to read various signals from an ATFX file and convert them into a Pandas Dataframe following a specific format.

Read MoreWe are pleased to announce that Crystal Instruments has recently acquired Quality Test Services (QTS), an environmental test lab in Huntington Beach, California. QTS was initially founded by Eric Gerlach in early 2006. Prior to QTS, Eric spent many years within the aerospace industry working as a technical lead at Qualmark. Under Eric’s leadership, QTS became a well-known test lab in southern California serving various customers with high-tech environmental testing needs. Jeff Gerlach, Eric’s son, will succeed his father within the business and continue to run the lab as the test lab manager.
Read MoreIn many applications, multiple measurements must be acquired and analyzed in order to confidently characterize a UUT. Often, this can lead to a cluttered and disorganized file system. The Signal Details feature in EDM Post Analyzer software provides users with an easy process to examine the properties of an acquired signal or post-processed signal.
Read MoreThe latest release of version 2.2 CoCo Software includes notable updates such as support for 1 hz resolution, an IEPE powered tachometer, Waterfall & Colormap signal reviews, and the ability to sync VDS user profiles on a CoCo device.
