Stroboscope (100 to 12500fpm)
The SPM Vibration Stroboscope 18432 is ideal for non-contact measurement of rotational speed and observation of fast, repetitive motion, moving components, or handled material. The 18432 is a sophisticated stroboscope with many functions yet remains easy to use. The stroboscope provides excellent brightness, robust construction, and extra-long battery life. The unique one-touch joystick-type button allows simple operation for fast fractional RPM tuning.
The revolving or oscillating machine component can be visualized as a stop-motion picture by adjusting the light flashes synchronously to the rate of the movement. With the multiplier/divider function, the actual RPM or frequency of the motion can be determined accurately. The phase-shift function enables visual positioning of the observed component, as well as the incremental observation of a complete course of motion in 5° steps. Due to its flash rate with low deviation from the actual motion frequency, the courses of motion can be observed under a slow-motion effect.
