LARGE air and water cooled Electrodynamic Shakers

Data Physics offers a full range of electrodynamic shakers for vibration testing

Whether you’re looking for air-cooled or water-cooled solutions, our high-force shakers are designed to meet the most demanding testing requirements. Explore our offerings to find the perfect shaker for your vibration testing needs.

Water Cooled shakers

Water Cooled Shakers Are Typically Used for Larger Payloads and More Demanding Structural Testing Applications

By utilizing dual hydrostatic bearings, payloads with high overturning moments can be tested without the need for external guidance systems. Water cooled shaker systems generate comparably lower acoustic noise output and lower demand on facility HVAC systems. Water cooled shaker bodies are completely sealed, making them ideal for both clean room and hazardous environments.
