SpectraQuest Vibration Workshops and Learning Lab

SpectraQuest Vibration Workshops and Learning Lab Dec. 5 – Dec. 8, IMC 2011 Hyatt Regency Coconut Point BonitaSprings, Florida, USA

Please join SpectraQuest for Hands-on Workshops on Vibration Analysis

SpectraQuest is a leading developer and manufacturer of world class Machinery Fault Simulators. We will offer two interactive workshops and five structured demonstrations at our Learning Lab. The emphasis of all workshops and labs will be a hands-on approach. We strongly believe that one learns best by “touch, feel, and sense” performing controlled experiments using devices that emulate real world machinery scenarios.
 
SpectraQuest Learning Lab will provide attendees with a unique approach to learning vibration analysis using theory/lectures followed by real time demonstrations of different types of faults. The approach involves a classroom with several workstations set up for carrying out controlled exercises. Each workstation will consist of a Machinery Fault Simulator, a multi-channel data acquisition system, simulation and analysis software, fully wired sensors, and necessary accessories such as tachometer, strobe, etc. All workstations will be networked enabling the instructor to project the results on a large screen for explanation/discussion to maximize your benefits. You will have an opportunity to conduct controlled experiments, acquire data, perform analysis, and ask our experts to clarify your questions/doubts.
