POLYTEC GmbH from Waldbronn WINS industry award 2011 the POLYTEC GmbH award on 6 April at the Hannover Fair for their ultra high frequency UHF-120 Vibrometer industry 2011 in the category micro system technology. The Vibrometer captures high-frequency oscillations and transient movement operations according to the principle of optical Doppler interferometry. Compared to previously available FM frequency bandwidth to 50 times on 1.2 GHz has been increased. This opens completely new applications. The POLYTEC UHF-120 ultra high frequency Vibrometer (www.polytec.de/ uhf) was in the category of microsystem technology the industry 2011 awarded prize.
The awarding took place on the 06.04 on the Hannover Messe. The prize donated by the Huber Verlag fur neue Medien is awarded by a 30-member Panel of experts. This new award of POLYTEC product demonstrates the innovative strength of the Waldbronner company. POLYTEC gained, for example, 2009 innovation award of the German economy for the RoboVib test station for fully automatic vibration analysis, as well as the MessTec & Sensor Masters award for the optical Derotator. The POLYTEC awarded the industry award as special innovation captures high-frequency oscillations and transient movement operations according to the principle of optical Doppler interferometry UHF-120 Vibrometers.
The frequency bandwidth increased compared to previously available FM to the 50 times (!) on 1.2 GHz opens up completely new applications. It allows the direct measurement and visualization of novel micro-electro-mechanical or micro-electronic components such as RF-MEMS NEMS, Ultraschalltransducern (medical) or SAW and BAW filters (micro-electronics) (used in mobile phones). The visualization method is similar to a camera, the tiny vibration amplitudes (< 1 Picometer) and extremely fast movements (1.2 billion oscillations per second). Due to these properties, a development engineer can characterize the mechanical behavior of a prototype easy and extremely accurate. Better products with shorter development times are the result.
