1. INTRODUCTION
A vibration exciter is a force generator that provides vibration, shock, or modal excitation source for
testing and analysis produces mechanical vibratory motion to test object. The exciters are designed to
produce a given range of harmonic or time dependent excitation force and displacement through a given
range of frequencies. These machines can be mechanical, electro-hydraulic or electro-dynamic in nature.
Vibration exciters are used for development, simulation, production, studying the effects of vibration, and
simulate the shock or vibration conditions found in aerospace, construction, agricultural, automobile, etc.
[1]
After invention of vehicles, advancement in each section has been in full force in improving the
performance of the vehicle like vibration isolation, ride comfort, stability and efficiency. Ride comfort
problems mainly arise from vibrations of the vehicle body, which may be induced by a variety of sources,
including surface irregularities, aerodynamic forces, vibrations of the engine and driveline, and imbalances
of the tire against assembly. Usually, surface irregularities excite the vibration of the vehicle body.
Vibration exciter acts as an input to the designed models of vehicle and those models can be analyzed by
different ways to improve vibration behavior of vehicle. [2,3]

Design and Fabrication of Mechanical Vibration Exciter
1.1. LITERATURE SURVEY

The literature survey has been done for collecting information regarding the design and fabrication of
mechanical vibration exciters. Our literature survey is based on: a] design b] type of exciter c] type of input
d] type of testing.
S. H. Sawant et al[4] have designed a vibration exciter for the analysis of a quarter car model. They
have mentioned that their analysis is based on the fact that a road can be considered as an infinite cam with
wavy profile of harmonic waves and the wheel of quarter car model as follower. As the road is considered
as cam which will give harmonic road excitation to vehicle an eccentric cam can be used as exciter for
vibration analysis. Their experimental setup has been studied which was used for this purpose. It consists
of a shock absorber attached to a compression spring. The load equal to sprung weight is applied by
tightening nut on it. An eccentric cam is used to provide excitation is placed at the bottom of shock
absorber, which is connected to shaft of an electric motor. The displacement of shock absorber due to cam
rotation is measured by FFT analyzer by mounting accelerometer at upper mount of shock absorber. Thus,
the experimental setup used here, can be used for a single type of motion.
Brain Wallace and Brandon Dawe [5] have designed a vibration exciter table for beam and plate
vibrations for laboratory demonstration. Their primary objective was to perform experiments like
excitation of beams, round plates, square pates and rectangular plates and slip tables, of different materials.
They have mentioned that the stroke range was 3.18mm. However, for slip table application, it was capable
of providing a stroke of 70mm. On examining their report, it was found that they used cam and follower
mechanism to provide the required vibrations. The cam profile selected for desired results was S.H.M
profile. The roller used was a sealed roller bearing type, from Detroit Ball Bearing (p/n SSRI-814). In
order to determine the frequency at which the shaker was operating, a reflective photo-transistor and a
frequency to voltage converter was used. A Hewlett Packard Dynamic Signal Analyzer (model # 35670A)
and ICP Sensor Power Unit (model # 480E09) were used to capture the data from the accelerometer. The
Digital Signal Analyzer was used to output the operating frequency of the shaker as well as acceleration.
This frequency output allowed for proper calibration of the photo-transmitter. Their results show that cam
and follower mechanism can be used for simple harmonic motion.
Nitinkumar Anekaret al [6] have designed an exciter machine for experimentation purpose and testing
products at different frequencies. They have designed the exciter taking both static and dynamic load
conditions. It is observed that they considered spring as an important part in the design and hence,
designed it under static and dynamic conditions to check under surging and fatigue. The exciter consisted
of five main parts: base frame, drive system (motor), eccentric mass, spring& top plate. The exciter was
mainly made of mild steel, except elements like disc attached to motor, which was made of aluminum. The
base frame was made of channel. The drive system includes a permanent magnet type DC motor with
variable speed. The disc with eccentric mass was attached to motor shaft at one end. This system was fixed
to top plate which is also used to hold the samples. To achieve different excitations, the variable speed
knob was attached to DC motor to control both speed and excitations. The drive system achieved a speed
between 0 rpm to 1440 rpm. Thus, their exciter simply uses an eccentric mass to provide forced vibrations.
L.A.B. Equipment, Inc. [7], published online catalogue having specification mentioning frequency,
dimension of shaker table, amplitude for given payload. For example, for a payload of 91kg, frequency is 8
Hz to 60 Hz, displacement is 1.3 mm, table size is 610 x 610 mm.
Essential components have been discussed in literature survey. Available literature fulfills our
requirements toward designing mechanical vibration exciter which can be used as an input device for
analyzing vehicle behavior.
1.2. Aim and Objective

Vibration exciter is an important device that is used for testing of structures that are subjected to cyclic
loading. It acts as an external source of vibration, to simulate conditions in which the specimen under test
will be working. Mechanical vibration exciters are of lower cost than other types and can be used for
laboratory experiments.
Thus, the aim and objective of our project is to design and fabricate mechanical vibration exciter for
providing S.H.M. and sudden jerk motion.
1.3. Problem Definition

Mechanical vibration exciters can accommodate only a single type of output like SHM. These
conventional cam profiles cannot provide shocks and sudden jerks. V.Ryan [8] has mentioned model of
snail/drop cam which can be used for providing a sudden jerk motion. So it was planned to fabricate a
vibration exciter with multiple output using cams of different profiles. Hence the problem definition is
Design and development of mechanical vibration exciter with multiple outputs.
1.4. Scope of the Project

The scope of our project work includes design of mechanical vibration exciter using cam and follower
mechanism. Two types of motions will be provided using S.H.M. profile and drop profile of cam. The
scope also includes selection of materials, fabrication and testing of the exciter using FFT analyzer.
In order to design vibration exciter, its components like cam, follower, shaft and springs have to be
designed, which are discussed in the next chapter.
CHAPTER 2
2. DESIGN AND DEVELOPMENT
The previous chapter gave an introduction to the concept of the project and literature review help in
deciding the components to be used and parameters that can affect the results of the project.
This chapter will include the discussion regarding the layout of the project and design considerations
based on calculations. The experimental layout, components and their functions are explained in figure 2.1.
2.1. Proposed layout of Mechanical Vibration Exciter

The layout consists of four cams, two of each type, mounted on the shaft symmetrically as shown in figure
2.1. The follower body is threaded so that only two cams of same type are in contact at a time.
Figure 2.1 Proposed design of Mechanical Vibration Exciter
2.2. Components of Mechanical Vibration Exciter

This section will show the various components that will be incorporated in this project along with their
brief description.
Cam and Follower: The cam and follower mechanism will be used for providing the vibrations. Two
types of cam profiles will be used for two different outputs, namely: S.H.M profile and Snail/Drop
profile.
Spring: Coil springs of ASTM A228 will be used to maintain the contact between the cam and the
follower.
Bearing: Bearings will be used to provide support to the shaft.
Shaft: The shaft will be connected the motor and will carry the cams on it. A keyway will be provided
on the shaft so as to fix the cams on it.
Jaw Coupling: The motor shaft will be connected to the shaft carrying the cams via anJaw coupling.
Motor: A motor of 1 HP power rating will be used to drive the shaft.
2.3. Design Calculations

3. FABRICATION OF VIBRATION EXCITER
3.1. Fabrication of Vibration Exciter
In this chapter, different components of vibration exciter are described in terms of their dimensions given
in Table 3.1. The shaft was fabricated on lathe machine. The cams were made on VNC machine. The IGES
files of the cams were opened in Master Cam software to get the co-ordinates for VNC machining. The
follower was made using lathe and VNC machine. Internal threading in plate was done by tapping. Deep
groove ball bearings and springs were directly purchased from the market. The fabricated parts of vibration
exciter such as shaft, SHM cam, Jerk cam and follower are shown in diagram 3.1, 3.2, 3.3, 3.4 and 3.5
respectively.

In vibration exciter there is a provision of two SHM cams and two Snail cams, while hence fabrication
of shaft has four key slots to incorporate all four cams. To avoid linear motion of cams on shaft, circular
circlips are accommodated along with cams. Threaded followers with roller at its one end is to make line
contact with cam simultaneously other end which is threaded is used for easy engagement of any one type
of input profile like SHM or Jerk. The M.S. top plate works as an actuator to facilitate movement of
threaded follower reinforcement is attached with four equidistant threaded holes. .A complete assembly is
shown in Figure 3.6.
Figure 3.6 Complete Assembly of Vibration Exciter

Assembly of vibration exciter with its all the components and input as 1 HP motor with variable speed
is need to be tested and its output at vibration exciter plate has to be analyzed, the same is discussed in next
chapter.

4. RESULT AND ANALYSIS OF VIBRATION EXCITER
4.1. Results
The mechanism used to operate one type of input at one time in vibration exciter having two different type
of cam profile on same shaft is represented in fig. 4.1 and 4.2 as SHM input and jerk input. Its been shown
in both the figures, two types of cams consider type A and type B. Where type A has jerk type motion and
those cams are mounted on the shaft at the outer ends, where as type B has SHM type motion and those
cams are mounted on the shaft at the central portion. The output is measured by using FFT analyzer i.e.
output/amplitude in frequency domain. For Jerk motion and SHM motion, output is shown in Figure 4.3
and 4.4 respectively.

For SHM type input with 1cm amplitude, a peak of 1.14 cm is observed in upward direction and 1.28
cm is observed in downward direction as shown in figure 4.4.
4.2. Analysis
The graphs obtained by FFT analyzer with the help of accelerometer are slightly out of range due to
following reasons-
Insufficient damping as the setup is not fixed to the ground.
Required contact stresses between follower roller and cams cannot be measured.
Friction between roller and roller pin is causing slight slipping of the roller initially.
Based on results obtained, the conclusion of the project is discussed in next chapter.
CHAPTER 5
5. CONCLUSION
In chapter 4, the results obtained from the FFT analyzer are discussed. The time vs amplitude graph shows
that both the types of output waveformsSHM and sudden jerk, are achieved with the cam and follower
mechanism. The exciter can be used for rpm value of the motor up to 1000 rpm. The variation in the
amplitude indicates that the damping provided by external weights is insufficient. By fixing the frame to
the ground or by using vibration dampening pads, sufficient damping can be provided, which will give
better accuracy. Use of ball bearing as roller in the roller follower will reduce the friction between the
roller and cams and also reduce the stress on the roller pin. This will increase the life of both the roller and
the cams.
