FLEXIBLE VIBRATION MEASUREMENT

Polytec Laser Doppler Vibrometers are precision tools for non-contact vibration
measurement. Designed to be quick, easy to operate and free from cross-talk or
feedback problems, these instruments determine a structure’s velocity and displace-
ment from the Doppler shift of back-scattered laser light. Fiber-optic LDV systems
have a flexible fiber-optic cable terminated by a mini-lens that simplifies the
placement of differential and single point laser probes.

Designed for Sophisticated Key Features and Benefits

Measurements of OFV-551/552
Fiber-optic vibrometers simplify vibration measure- Single-point (OFV-551) or two-arm
ment where physical access is difficult, close stand- differential (OFV-552) vibrometer
off-distances are required, and when relative motions High efficiency delivery and collection optics
between two points need to be measured. The sensor produce usable signals from poorly reflecting
heads utilize flexible fiber-optics and an output lens surfaces up to 1 m away
to deliver the laser probe to the measurement point
High spatial resolution
and to collect the reflected light as an input to the
interferometer. This design allows to focus the laser Typical spot size only 15 µm with standard lens,
down to a 3 µm diameter spot. 3 µm with optional accessories and down to 1 µm
A special, dual-fiber design (OFV-552) permits the through microscopes
direct measurement of differential movements Rugged internal fiber coupler stabilizes the system
between two monitored points. The flexibility from misalignment of the interferometer
and small size of the fiber delivery enables measure- Integrated power dimmer adjusts output intensity
ments in hard-to-reach and space-limited areas. (optional)
Extremely compact and robust housing
Polytec’s fiber-optic vibrometers are widely used in Compatible with entire family of Polytec vibrometer
the electronics industry for measurements on circuit controllers and microscope based systems
boards, tiny bonding wires, mobile phones and hard
disc drive components. Other applications are found
in micro structures, medicine, zoology, and auto-
motive manufacturing.
