Shaker Table – Metrix industrial shaking tables

Essential equipment for accurate calibration of sensors and transmitters in industrial environments.

O Hardy Shaker, shaking table of the Metrix, ensures that seismic sensors and transmitters, as well as proximity sensors, function properly and provide accurate results. Just as pressure and flow instruments require annual calibration checks, seismic and proximity sensors also require preventive maintenance to maintain reliability.

Furthermore, this equipment puts calibration verification directly under your control. With the HI-223-9M accessory, for example, you can easily calibrate proximity sensors. This makes maintenance more efficient and cost-effective, avoiding unexpected failures and high costs.

Why invest in predictive maintenance with Shaker Table

When sensors and transmitters don't operate properly, the data collected no longer reflects reality, compromising technical and financial decisions. Therefore, Hardy Shaker becomes essential to ensure that your proactive maintenance works effectively and safely.

Complementary models

  • HI-903 Hardy Shaker: Deluxe model with automated storage and reporting, ideal for environments that require detailed history.
  • HI-913 Hardy Shaker: standard and robust model, designed for heavy field use, ensuring reliability even in adverse conditions.

Importance of industrial shaking tables

Industrial shaker tables allow testing of seismic and proximity sensors and transmitters under conditions that simulate real-world operating situations. This allows engineers and technicians to identify potential problems before they impact the industrial plant. Furthermore, these checks ensure that the equipment continues to operate at expected performance.

Consequently, industries such as oil and gas, power generation, water and wastewater, mining, and steel depend on this equipment to maintain the reliability of their machines. On the other hand, a lack of regular calibration can lead to unplanned downtime and significant losses.
