iBumpTest App

GTI Predictive Technology is proud to announce the immediate availability of our new iBumpTest app for the Apple iPad. Determining the natural frequency of a mechanical system with a Bump Test is a controlled measurement. It is important to understanding the resonance of a system and the effect of a change of mass, a change in stiffness or a change in damping.

GTI Predictive Technology is continually developing new apps for our powerful VibePro family. iBumpTest is available as a kit that can be added to any iPad that already uses VibePro. iBumpTest is also available as a standalone kit for new users. Additional hardware is required for standalone kits.

iBumpTest includes the iBumpTest app, an impact hammer with modular heads for different applications and a cable for use with either our GTI-220 wireless sensor or our wired DAQ solution.
