Complex Gearbox Monitoring
May 22, 2024
Monitoring complex gearboxes can be quite a challenge, especially for multi-stage planetary gearbox setups. A lot of noise occurs within your data due to the many gear meshes, which makes it hard to identify bearing and gear faults accurately and when data is only taken on a routine basis, these faults can easily be missed.
Fiber Bragg Grating Technology: Integrating Optical and Electrical Sensors into One Unique Ideal Measurement System
May 21, 2024
Instrumentation is arguably a discipline where the diversity of physical phenomena is used to deliver optimal engineering solutions. Many sensors are electrical by design: strain gauges, piezo-electric accelerometers, piezo-resistive sensors, etc.
Securing and Accelerating Measurements and Data Acquisition Using TEDS
May 14, 2024
In practical terms, TEDS allow you to plug your sensor in a data acquisition system (SomatXR, QuantumX, LAN-XI, PMX, ClipX, etc.) and to start your test and measurement tasks immediately.
Accelerometers for the Space Industry
May 9, 2024
Many players in the space industry in Australia and New Zealand rely on HBK LDS vibration test systems, often called “shakers”. These shakers rely on accelerometers to measure induced vibrations and provide feedback to the controller.
Load-Cell Hell: From Weigh- Bridges to Weighing Bottles
Load cells are crucial for precise weight measurement in all industrial and commercial applications. They are the single most critical component in any weighing system be it stand-alone or integrated into a production line, or any continuous processing infrastructure across every industry.
HBK LDS Vibration Test Systems for Battery Testing
The de-carbonization of some sectors of the Australian society and economy continues. So does the electrification of various products, including cars, energy storage, buses, some kitchen stoves, the first boats, etc. Many of these products require batteries.
Dytran Accelerometers for Missiles, Rockets and Space Applications
Space-related activities are accelerating in New Zealand, Queensland, South Australia and within many Australian universities such as ANU, UNSW and more.
Building Acoustics Partner – Acoustic Quality of Buildings and Determination of Sleep Disturbance
The HBK 2255 Sound Level Meter with Building Acoustics Partner is designed specifically for building acoustics measurements. Lightweight and robust, HBK 2255 and its accessories are ideally suited for use on real-world building sites, where dust and debris are more commonplace than functioning elevators.
How Industrial Shakers Grew in Size and Changed Modal Analysis
February 27, 2025
Over the last 25 years, Finite Element Analysis (FEA) has become more powerful, accessible, and affordable. But the need for physical vibration testing has remained, for correlation, verification, package testing or final acceptance.
NVMS Talk the Torque – Static & Dynamic Torque Measurement
February 27, 2025
Fundamentally, any rotating shaft has the function of transferring power, i.e. the product of the rotational speed by the transferred torque.
eDrive on Genesis
February 27, 2025
As decarbonisation of society slowly takes place, so does electrification of various equipment. On fixed plants for example, small steam turbines driving pumps or fans are regularly replaced by motors. In the automotive industry, the transition is faster with the number of hybrid and electric vehicles now rapidly increasing.
Acoustic Cameras – From Wind Turbines to Noisy Fans
February 27, 2025
In a market with a lot of options, HBK (formerly Bruel and Kjaer) acoustic cameras are a beacon of precision and efficiency.
NVMS and HBK to Exhibit at Land Forces 2026
October 16, 2026
NVMS and HBK will showcase advanced test and measurement, data acquisition, real-time simulation, and asset health monitoring technologies at Land Forces 2026. Visitors will have the opportunity to engage with specialists from NVMS, HBK and Concurrent Real-Time, exploring solutions that support defence testing, system validation, structural monitoring, condition monitoring, and critical asset management, backed by local expertise and support from NVMS.
Druck Pressure Measurement Solutions Now Available Through NVMS
September 23, 2026
NVMS has expanded its offering with the addition of Druck pressure measurement solutions. The range includes sensors, calibrators, controllers, gauges, hand pumps, ADTS systems and calibration software, supporting customers across industrial, laboratory, aerospace, defence and field service applications with globally recognised technology backed by NVMS’s local technical expertise and support.
Enhancing Sound Level Meter Calibration Through Automation and Precision
March 6, 2026
NVMS has enhanced its sound level meter calibration capability with the introduction of the HBK Type 3630-A. This advanced, automated system improves accuracy, repeatability, and turnaround times while ensuring strict standards compliance. The result is greater measurement confidence, robust traceable documentation, and stronger support for regulatory, workplace, and environmental compliance requirements.
Noise Assessor Course Brisbane
May 1, 2026
NVMS’s highly-regarded Noise Assessor Course is coming to Brisbane next week, and with a couple of places still available it’s not too late to register. We’re also seeking expressions of interest to bring the course to Melbourne in 2025.
