LMS CADA-X, The LMS Test.Lab predecessor

Prior to the launch of the LMS Test.Lab product range, LMS CADA-X was the widely accepted platform for advanced multi-channel data acquisition and analysis for noise and vibration engineering. Its powerful set of solutions in terms of performance, flexibility, and application scope was the solid base for the development of LMS Test.Lab. Still available today, LMS CADA-X remains a very complete platform for test-based acoustic and vibration engineering.

LMS CADA-X is based upon a choice of multichannel measurement front ends, runs on PC and workstation platforms, and has all the standards and hooks to connect to a variety of dedicated testing hardware, such as smart sensors, laser vibrometers, robotically steered microphone arrays, chassis dynamometers... The modular software ranges from general purpose multichannel data acquisition and DSP, through basic and advanced acoustics, signature testing and operational analysis, structural testing and modal analysis. You can even customize the system add extra functionality or analysis procedures.

Application scope:

• Rotating Machinery Testing (Fixed Sampling, Order Tracking, Running Mode Analysis)

• Structural Testing (Shaker Testing, Impact Testing, Stepped Sine and Normal Modes, Modal Analysis, Modal Design, Mimimal Test Preparation Time, MIMO FRF Measurements)

• Acoustic Testing (Sound Quality, Jury Testing, Pass-by Noise Measurements, Acoustic Intensity, Acoustic Holography, Reverberation Time and Sound Transmission Loss Monitor)

• Time Recording and Analysis (Throughput Acquisition and Processing, General Purpose Data Processing & Analysis, Real Time Animation, Recorder interfaces)

• Service Load Simulation
