In order to facilitate dynamic analysis of spindle, improve the vibration characteristics of the spindle and achieve the goal of control of spindle motion stability. A spindle vibration testing system is developed with necessary sensor, signal conditioner and data acquisition card based on Labview software in this paper. The spindle vibration testing and analysis system is formed based on virtual instrument graphical programming language Labview. The hardware is reduced in testing process. At the same time, acquisition, processing and analysis for vibration signal are realized, and the costs of hardware are greatly reduced. The testing work is made more convenient and quick by this system, and test is made more intuitive by its real-time display function. It will provide a scientific basis for searching for measures to reduce the spindle vibration and developing a new generation of mechanical structure of the spindle.

This paper presents the development of three virtual resistance meters using LabVIEW. The unknown resistance is measured in terms of a known resistance of high accuracy by employing (a) a real dc voltage source, (b) a real dc current source, and (c) a virtual dc voltage source. In each case, ratio of two voltage signals is acquired by a single-ADC based multichannel data acquisition card. Therefore error of the ADC gets cancelled, when ratio of two voltages is used in the final calculation of the value of unknown resistance. The first two VRMs use a real excitation source and are thus semi-virtual instruments, whereas the third one is fully-virtual as the excitation source is also implemented in the LabVIEW software along with DAC section of the data acquisition card. The three virtual resistance meters have been successfully implemented. The principle of ratio-metric measurement used makes the accuracy (uncertainty) of final measurement free from the uncertainties of the ADC, the DAC and the excitation source. Standard deviations of the readings taken with the three VRMs have been evaluated and compared. It is concluded that the fully-virtual instrument has the lowest and excellent value of standard deviation.

We use LabVIEW software and PCI-6024E data acquisition card to design the virtual digital storage oscilloscope. The oscilloscope makes full use of the capabilities of computer storage and connected with the external device.The measurement waveform can storage once, long-term preservation and multiple display,so that we can observe the signal of single change and slow change. Waveform have a variety of ways output. The hardware is open, we can increase the software module by modifying to increase the function of the instrument.

A novel control platform for the permanent magnet linear synchronous motor (PMLSM) drive system has been built up based on virtual instrument (VI) and relavant data acquisition card (DAQ) devices. In the traditional control platform, it mostly depends on digital signal processor (DSP), which needs a lot of time to further develop the interface between the personal computer (PC) and operators, and its computational capability is not strong than computer. To overcome these shortages, a novel control platform is presented on the base of one PC, one LabVIEW, and one multifunctional data acquisition card. Firstly, a space vector pulse width modulation (SVPWM) signal source is executed in the VI. Then in order to improve the precision of control system, the field oriented control (FOC) is proposed for the PMLSM. Finally comprehensive experiments verify with relative simulations.

An existing senior level elective course on vibration in Mechanical Engineering Technology program at Georgia Southern University has been modified significantly. Two major components have been added to this course. Those are theoretical topics on preventive maintenance and laboratory experiments. As a part of laboratory experiments, Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) was introduced as a possible tool for vibration analysis for the purposes of machine diagnosis. Utilizing the current laboratory set up for the data acquisition systems, LabView software has been used for FFT analysis of signals from various sources. Four different modules were developed and implemented. The modules are as follows: random variation in acceleration of a toy cart due to roughness of the track and pulley, regular uniform wave signal which is generated by the lateral vibration of a cantilever beam at its natural frequency, signal generated by the imported raw data from other sources (e.g. MATLAB) and vibration signal of a shaft mounted on ball bearings in order to detect the defects in the bearing. Each of these modules is illustrated in this paper with suitable examples and suggested student activities and involvements. The results from FFT analysis have been cross checked using other methods and observations. As a follow up, students have been taken to a local industry where significant amount of emphasis is given to preventive maintenance of machineries by vibration data analysis using FFT. Future possible projects include the analysis of vibration data gathered from actual machine shop. This project opens the scope for greater collaborative effort between local industries and classroom activities.

This study presents research regarding the calculation of the mechanical characteristics of composite polymeric materials. By using LabVIEW� software a virtual instrument was created used for monitoring in real time the process of cross-linking the composite polymeric materials. The experiments were realized based on composite materials containing epoxy/fiberglass resin of different topologies. By means of the virtual instrument and of a sensor created based on the mechanical impedance analysis, implanted in the composite material, it was determined the G shearing module of the composite material at different temperatures.

This paper puts forward a method to control the industrial robots based on the NI Corporations LabVIEW virtual instrument technology. By designing the communication protocol between the LabVIEW software program on PC and industrial robots, the LabVIEW program can take the control of industrial robots by using RS232 serial ports, including the operation instructions' transmission, the feedback of the robots' running, and the data exchange between the two. The result shows that can effectively realize the motion control of industrial robots based on LabVIEW.
