"Lockheed Aeronautics Company engineers now can configure their PXI-based system 10 times as fast as when using their previous VME equipment while doubling their channel count. Also, the Portable Digital Data Acquisition System (PDDAS) reduces test cycle time from 2 sec to 50 ms all for less than it would have cost to upgrade only a portion of the VME-based test system."

Structural tests often involve complex requirements including tight timing and synchronization, high channel counts, real-time and postacquisition signal processing, advanced control algorithms, data management, and advanced visualization. Traditional structural test systems only partially address these requirements because they lack either the hardware performance, I/O modularity, software-hardware integration, or software features to provide the most accurate data in the most meaningful, result-driven way.
Meeting these complex requirements in a cost-effective manner is even more challenging because test systems often require extensive initial engineering resources and development time in addition to customization work for each new structure under test.
Discover how National Instruments and virtual instrumentation, the concept of using modular hardware and customizable software, can help meet and exceed your structural test requirements while helping you reduce development time and cost.
