Excitation and Acquisition /
The hydraulic, 6-degree of freedom MAST system is situated 50mm above floor level within climatic test room 2, enabling excitation of large structures at low frequencies. Electrodynamic shakers enable testing at higher frequency ranges both within and outside the climatic test rooms.
