PCB Piezotronics Adds Miniature ICP Triaxial Accelerometers with TEDS

PCB Piezotronics introduced new TLD356A01 and TLD356A03 Miniature ICP Triaxial Accelerometers with TEDS. These new models are upgrades to PCB's current 356A01 and 356A03 models with the addition of TEDS functionality. The new triaxial sensors are primarily used to measure vibration inside devices, where space is restricted and are highly valued for automotive systems development, modal and structural analysis, and general purpose vibration testing.

German test and measurement specialist HEAD acoustics announced the latest update to its modular software platform for sound and vibration measurements and analysis, introducing enhancements and optimizations for a more efficient user experience. With the new release 13.6, HEAD acoustics has further optimized ArtemiS SUITE for efficient analysis of product and environmental noise as well as structural dynamics.

With the release of ArtemiS SUITE 12.5, HEAD acoustics introduced a complete structural analysis package, offering Time Domain Animation, Operational Deflection Shape (ODS), Shape Comparison Tool and Modal Analysis. This will allow a unified software environment for simulation and project engineers to address structural dynamic issues within the ArtemiS SUITE with ease and efficiency.

Amphenol Corporation, the global provider of high-technology interconnect, antenna and sensor solutions, continues its expansion and now announced that it has completed the planned acquisition of MTS Systems Corporation. MTS is the company that had acquired PCB Group in 2016, becoming the owner of PCB Piezotronics and Larson Davis. Amphenol will now sell the test and simulation business of MTS to ITW (Illinois Tool Works), as agreed in December 2020.

PCB Piezotronics just confirmed its latest schedule of annual training seminars on the topics of dynamic measurement, acoustic measurement and modal analysis. These seminars are offered each year as both an opportunity for engineers new to the field to learn more about taking good measurements, as well as to give the more experienced engineers an opportunity to refresh their knowledge and learn about new applications/methods made possible by new product development.
