HWTS Inc. can provide complete vibration analysis with respect to
shock induced or rotating issues. The analysis can address the cause of the
vibration, the resulting affects on it, the solution to the problem and all
major areas of concern. The first step in this process will be a review of all
of the information and determine a process to resolve the issue.

Areas Addressed
 | Isolating the Cause
The cause of a serious vibration problem can be hard to locate. A
simple and systematic process of elimination would be used to locate
the problem.
| Analyzing the Effects of Vibration
Once the cause of the vibration is located its magnitude and impact
on the system can be determined. From this point on it is a case of
where does the problem warrant a solution or is it a case where the
levels of vibration are monitored and a solution postponed until a
later date.
| Solution to the Problem
The solution to the problem may be as simple as the replacement of
the equipment but in other cases is may be more involved, such as
adding more supports or isolators. In some cases where the problem is
an impact issue, such as a case for an instrument or tool, the
resulting solution may be a redesign of the enclosure.
| Vibration/Shock Induced Loads
Stresses induced by vibration/shock can be addressed similar to
seismic induced stresses. Once the cause of the vibration/shock has
been identified, the maximum 'g' force can be determined and used in
the analysis.
