DESCRIPTION
The Slam Stick™ is a high speed ultra portable
rechargeable data logger capable of measuring
acceleration in all three axes. The device uses a USB Port
for on the fly configuring, charging and downloading of
data. Simple configuration software allows users to
tailor the device to their specific needs. The configuration
options include an adjustable delay time before each
measurement, different measurement durations, and a
trigger based on a pre-determined acceleration level.
Free analysis software allows for complete vibration
characterization enabling the user to determine the
frequency content of their given vibration.
The Slam Stick™ can be used for many different
applications including energy harvesting vibration
characterization, modal surveys and equipment
monitoring. Simply configure the device for your
application, mount the device on your vibrating structure,
hit the button and download the data to your computer.
