Crystal Instruments is excited to announce the release of EDM 10.0, the latest software version for all Spider and CoCo products serving advanced and fundamental industries in addition to furthering academic advancements.
EDM 10.0 provides MESA Random, MESA Sine, and MESA SoR for large UUT testing with multiple shakers and specific applications.
The Acoustic Control feature provides accurate control for high-level noise testing of reverberant chambers or progressive wave tubes.
Turbine Blade Fatigue testing provides variable features for different test procedures targeting different blades.
The Video Capture feature integrates test monitoring and video recording with test operations, data, and reporting to provide more detailed information from vibration testing or data acquisition.
New automatic recording features improve the usability of Spider-20E and other Spider products for unattended data acquisition and monitoring.
A major outline of the EDM 10.0 release features is provided below. For the complete list and further details of each feature, please download the EDM 10.0 Release Notes.
