MODAL 2
The Baby MODAL
The MODAL 2, MB's "baby modal," has significant advantages over larger modal exciters when testing in compact areas. Its small package makes it ideal for classroom settings. It delivers 2 lbs (9N) of force and 0.16" (4mm) of stroke pk-pk making it the smallest MB modal exciter.
MODAL 25
Half of a MODAL 50
The MODAL 25 is the newest addition to the best selling line of Modal Exciters in the world. It is literally half of a MODAL 50: half the magnets, half the force, and half the weight. It delivers 25 lbs (110N) of force and 1.0" (25mm) of stroke pk-pk.
MODAL 50
MB's Top Selling MODAL Exciter
The MODAL 50A is the best selling MODAL Exciter in the world. It was designed by a team of modal testers including University of Cincinnati professors. It delivers 50 lbs (220N) of force and 1.0" (25mm) of stroke pk-pk.
MODAL 110
The Red Modal
The MODAL 110 is becoming more popular by the day because of its long stroke, light moving element mass and low longitudinal stiffness. It delivers 110lbs (500N) of force and 1.5" (38mm) of stroke pk-pk and has twice the force and 50% more stroke than the MODAL 50.
