Static and dynamical structural tests, eg on aerospace or rail vehicles, are a speciality of M+P International's Coda product
Features include measurements of single- and multi-channel strain gages, real-time strain and stress calculations, limit checking and communication with the load control board.
With its intuitive graphical user interface, comprehensive functionality and data base management of set-ups and results Coda is ideally suited for applications with higher channel counts and large quantities of data; structural load cycling and dynamic testing, static and dynamic measurements on engine test stands, general-purpose measurements on products and test assemblies as well as long-term continuous product and process data acquisition in production.
Whether temperatures, pressures, forces, accelerations, frequencies, strains, etc are to be measured - Coda processes all signals without difficulty.
High-channel count applications using hundreds of channels can be configured within minutes and are handled safely and efficiently.
As standard, Coda supports a wide range of commercially available VXIbus and LXIbus measurement hardware which are outstandingly suited for many experimental tasks in industry and in the laboratory because of their performance, measurement accuracy and reliability.
Special measuremenent instrumentation can be easily integrated and Coda also communicates with subordinate process computers for data transfer from existing equipment.
Key features such as client/server architecture, SQL data base for parameter management, automatic frontend identification, real-time analysis of virtual channels using user-specific mathematical functions, alarm functions, data replay and data export to common file formats ensure the economy and efficiency of every Coda project.
