Fatigue Testing with FlexPro®: Counting Procedures

Rainflow Count

Counting procedures like the Rainflow counting procedure have proved to be an invaluable analysis tool in fatigue testing applications. Counting is based on a search for specific events in the load-time function, e.g. a certain load level being exceeded or a load alternation of a certain amplitude. For this purpose, the range of values of the load-time function is divided into discrete intervals, or classes. Each event found is assigned to a class and counted in this class.

More Information…

Spectral Analysis Option

FlexPro® Analysis Wizard gives you visual feedback when changes are made to algorithms, parameters or the type of spectrum. Uses real time 2D and 3D spectral graphs.

More Information…

Order Tracking Analysis Option

Perform an order tracking analysis for speed-dependent vibrations quickly and easily. Order tracking evaluates vibrations or noise of rotating machines. Here, the frequencies in the spectrum are related to the respective speed and represented as orders.

Additionally, this software option supports run-up analyses, order analyses at constant speed and order analyses with varying speed. The speed can also be specified as a pulse signal with a fixed number of pulses per revolution. All implemented methods are flexible and robust against noise in the speed signal.

More Information…

Digital Filter Analysis Option

The FlexPro® Analysis Wizard merges steps for filter design, filtering and presentation into a simple sequential process. Using real-time 2D and 3D graphics, FlexPro® provides immediate visual feedback whenever any change is made to the filter specification.

Enhanced IIR filters

IIR filters include internal feedback (recursive filters) and provide a high degree of steepness with a short filter length, making it possible to design low pass, high pass, bandpass and bandstop filters.

FIR filter design

FIR filters avoid feedback and are therefore always stable. FlexPro® offers you two procedures for calculating phase-linear filters with a minimum filter length.

More Information…

Acoustics Analysis Option

Determine the sound level and sound power in one easy, automatic step. You can also analyse multiple channels of sound signals and their sound level at the same time and calculate the sound power.

The WinDaq ExcelLink, short for WinDaq Advanced Trigger ExcelLink, is a bridge between the WinDaq software and Microsoft Excel. It enables a real-time connection to Excel spreadsheets (32- or 64-bit) and can stream data to Excel at high speed. Four trigger methods are available: two-point Windows trigger, one-point slope trigger with pre- and post-trigger data, manual single-row and block trigger, and programmable event-driven single-row trigger.

Even though Excel can store over 1,000,000 rows of data, this may be a small buffer for high-speed data acquisition. Hence, the trigger modes can be utilised to capture only the data of interest. ExcelLink supports advanced math to construct various trigger methods and evaluates every data point in WinDaq when assessing the trigger conditions.

The Window Trigger can capture signals inside or outside a range within two predefined start/stop conditions. The Slope Trigger with pre- and post-trigger can capture signals before and after a predefined trigger point. The Event Trigger can capture signals at the moment trigger conditions are met. The Derivative Trigger can capture the rate of change or glitches. The Paced Trigger can capture data at predefined intervals, and the Delayed Trigger can capture data at a predefined time after the trigger condition is met. The Manual Trigger can capture signals with the operator’s key instruction.

Product Features

• Supports both 32- and 64-bit versions of Microsoft Excel
• Supports channel expansion in ChannelStretch operation
• Capable of recording to both Excel and WinDaq files simultaneously
• Powerful trigger methods: (more information)
  • Window Trigger – to capture data inside or outside a range
  • Slope Trigger – to capture data when reading crossing a point
  • Event Trigger – to capture single row when an event happens
  • Derivative Trigger – to trigger on rate of change, such as a glitch
  • Paced Trigger – to capture a single row at predefined pace
  • Delayed Trigger – to capture data after a predefined delay from the trigger point
  • Manual Trigger – to capture data based on manual operation
  • Digital Channel Trigger – to capture data based on digital input conditions
• No programming needed
• High speed (up to 160K s/s) real-time data logging directly to Microsoft Excel
• The license stays with the instrument, so you can use the instrument at any PC to stream data to Excel
  NOTE: For ChannelStretch configurations one ExcelLink licence is required per device.
