When Hollywood needed a four poster to film the Rainier commercial, they called on Spectrum Technologies. Spectrum transported and setup their 4 poster on a sound stage of Universal Studios.

Large Number of Channels

Spectrum Technologies has the capability of recording 200 channels of vibration using Optim Megadacs with PCB sensors. The sensors include accelerometers, microphones, load cells, tach signals, and OBD II data.

We are pleased to announce our latest purchase of a Mars Labs 32 channel EBRT. The EBRT will allow Spectrum to acquire 32 channels of data at 100,000 samples per second for all 32 channels. This system is excellent for high frequency engine related data, interior noise, and squeak and rattle measurements.

Thanks Ernie!
