Tarang’s Centrifuge Machine for Acceleration is purpose-built to examine the mechanical performance of parts and assemblies when subjected to varying linear acceleration forces. Its design begins with a robust outer enclosure, crafted to endure the substantial centrifugal forces generated during high-speed rotation. This enclosure not only shields the internal components and test specimens but also prioritizes operator safety, preventing accidental exposure to these extreme forces and ensuring a controlled testing environment.
At the core of this system lies a rotating platform, outfitted with two mounting plates that can securely hold a broad spectrum of payloads. Whether you’re testing small components like electronics boards or larger assemblies such as automotive sub-systems, the platform’s versatility allows precise positioning of each test specimen at specific radial distances. By adjusting the specimen’s radial placement, engineers can accurately establish the required acceleration level to replicate the real-world stresses these parts may encounter, such as those experienced in high-speed vehicles, aerospace applications, or other dynamic environments.
Power and control are provided by a permanent magnet brushless servo motor, chosen for its consistent torque delivery, low maintenance, and high efficiency. This motor is governed by a PWM amplifier coupled with a digital closed-loop control system, enabling operators to adjust rotational speed in fine increments while receiving continuous feedback for real-time data acquisition. This closed-loop feedback not only ensures the centrifuge runs at a stable speed throughout each test cycle but also allows for quick and precise modifications should testing parameters change mid-run.
To further enhance the machine’s utility, Tarang has designed it to comply with a variety of international standards, including IS, MIL, DIN, ISO, EN, IEC, DEF, JSS-55555, and ASTM. Such compliance is vital for industries like aerospace, automotive, defense, and electronics, where products must meet stringent certifications and safety requirements. By supporting these recognized standards, the centrifuge facilitates both research and validation testing, helping manufacturers and engineers prove their components’ reliability in demanding scenarios.
Linear Acceleration Machine 100g acceleration and 100Kg Payload capacity
The wide acceleration range offered by Tarang’s Linear Acceleration Machines—extending from 1 mG to 1000 G, and 1 g-kg to 50000 g-kg—enables a vast array of testing possibilities. Engineers can simulate everything from ultra-light microgravity conditions up to extremely high acceleration scenarios that parts might face during rocket launches, missile deployments, or intense high-speed collisions. This high-precision capability is crucial for gathering detailed data on how components behave under different stresses, aiding in both product development and quality assurance.
For improved test monitoring, the centrifuge integrates a CCTV system, allowing continuous visual inspection of the test specimen throughout each run. This feature is particularly beneficial for documentation and troubleshooting, helping operators observe any potential distortions, vibrations, or anomalies in real time. Moreover, the machine supports multiple connectivity options—including electrical, electronic, data transfer, RF, pneumatic, and hydraulic interfaces. These connections accommodate live power feeds, sensor outputs, or fluid lines, ensuring test subjects can be evaluated under realistic working conditions, such as powered electronics, flowing hydraulics, or active pneumatic systems.
By merging durable construction, advanced control systems, comprehensive connectivity, and in-depth data capture, Tarang’s Centrifuge Machine for Acceleration offers a complete testing platform. It not only provides reliable insights into product performance, safety, and durability but also empowers engineers and researchers to optimize designs and uphold stringent quality standards. Whether it’s confirming the resilience of a critical aerospace component or validating the longevity of a newly developed automotive subsystem, Tarang’s solution stands as a cornerstone for industry-leading testing, innovation, and product excellence.
