Description

Mini-shaker Type 4810 is of the electrodynamic type with a permanent field magnet. It
is well-suited as the motive force generator in mechanical impedance measurements
where only smaller forces are required. It can also be used in the calibration of vibration
transducers, both to determine their sensitivity, by comparison with a standard accel-
erometer, as well as their frequency response, up to 18 kHz.
The suspension system consists of radial flexure springs that restrict the moving ele-
ment to almost perfectly rectilinear motion. Laminated flexure springs provide a high
degree of damping to minimise distortion due to flexure resonances.

The object to be vibrated is attached to the table by means of a 10 − 32 UNF screw, the
thread size commonly used for mounting accelerometers. Performance limits defined
by the maximum displacement (6 mm), maximum force (10 N or 7 N depending on fre-
quency), and the first axial resonance of the moving element (above 18 kHz), are shown
in Fig. 1.
