Focused vibration measurement. High speed. Long range.

Capture precise, non-contact vibration data when one decisive measurement point is enough. QMini keeps deployment and readout straightforward for real test work.

Use SpeedSync to match the optical head to the measurement distance and access constraints.

A practical LDV solution for single-point measurements

Choose QMini when one decisive point is enough.

QMini is a single-beam laser vibrometer readout station for validation, diagnostics and development work. It helps teams inspect a critical response without adding a contact sensor or committing to a multi-point system.

ISO 16063-41-aligned calibration information

QMini is well suited to:

  • single-point validation on a component, assembly or structure
  • bench testing, development work and machine diagnostics
  • tests where sensor mass, cabling or physical access can distort the result or slow setup
  • teams that need a clear acquisition-to-export workflow for one critical response

Designed for focused measurement

Laser vibrometry should be practical to adopt. QMini gives teams a focused single-point workflow with the performance headroom to make the data useful.

QMini at a glance

  • Velocity capability: up to ±48 m/s
  • Frequency range: up to 62 MHz
  • Interfaces: GigE, GPS, analogue input/output and digital output
  • Software: Atelier and OmmH5Viewer for capture, review, processing and UFF export
  • Optical configuration: SpeedSync heads selected around range and access

The modular architecture also supports synchronised multi-axis velocity measurements through daisy-chained systems. Bring in Q2 when the application needs additional optical or analogue channels.

QMini + SpeedSync: configure the measurement point

QMini and SpeedSync form a practical single-point LDV workflow from optical access through to data export.

Optical head selectionChoose the SpeedSync head around stand-off distance, target access and the test environment.

Signal and interfacesUse GigE, GPS, analogue I/O and digital output to connect the measurement to the wider test setup.

From capture to exportUse Atelier and OmmH5Viewer to acquire, inspect, process and export data in UFF and other standard formats.

Built for focused test setups

When one decisive measurement point answers the question, a multi-point system is not the first requirement.

QMini serves a different purpose.

It is built for users who want:

  • one measurement point
  • rapid deployment
  • a straightforward signal chain
  • a practical way into laser vibrometry
  • a tool that is easy to understand and easy to use
  • without compromising performance

This makes it highly attractive for labs, development teams, universities, maintenance teams, and engineers validating vibration behavior at one critical location.

Start focused. Expand when the measurement requires it.

QMini gives teams a clear route into non-contact vibration measurement without overbuilding the first test. Where the work later requires synchronized multi-axis velocity, daisy-chain compatible systems; where it requires more optical or analogue channels, plan the Q2 configuration with an applications engineer.

Where QMini fits

QMini is built for focused vibration measurements such as:

  • Component vibration testing
    Measure the response of a single critical point on a part, assembly, or prototype.
  • Modal testing support
    Capture vibration response at selected points during experimental testing.
  • Machine diagnostics
    Monitor vibration on motors, housings, fixtures, or rotating systems without contact.
  • Academic and teaching labs
    Introduce laser vibrometry in a more accessible and budget-conscious format.
  • R&D and validation
    Quickly test hypotheses and compare structural responses across design iterations.
  • Entry-level non-contact sensing
    Replace or complement contact sensors where wiring, mass loading, or access is a limitation.

QMini selection and workflow questions

Use QMini for a focused non-contact vibration measurement, then expand the system only when the measurement requires it.

When is QMini the right laser vibrometer?

Choose QMini when one decisive measurement point can answer the engineering question. It is a single-beam laser vibrometer for validation, diagnostics, development, machine testing and selected modal-response measurements where sensor mass, cabling or physical access would complicate a contact measurement.

What speed, frequency and distance can QMini address?

The published QMini capability reaches ±48 m/s velocity and 62 MHz frequency. SpeedSync optical heads are selected around stand-off distance and access, with long-range configurations published up to 300 m. Confirm the required motion, return signal, working distance and analysis band for the actual target.

How does QMini connect to a test workflow?

QMini provides Gigabit Ethernet, GPS, analogue input and output, and digital output. Atelier and OmmH5Viewer support acquisition, review, processing and UFF export. Define synchronization, trigger, file format and downstream analysis requirements before configuring the measurement.

When should a team move from QMini to a multi-point system?

Keep QMini when a focused single-point result is enough. Daisy-chain compatible systems can support synchronized multi-axis velocity measurements. Evaluate Q2 when the application needs many optical or analogue channels, dense full-field vibration maps, 3D geometry or multi-view motion reconstruction.
