1. Extremely non-uniform impact intensity throughout the table. For some tables, impact magnitudes vary up to 275% for different locations on the table (see Quanta's "Environmental Stress Screening Equipment: Search, Evaluation, Design, Experimentation" in Test Engineering and Management Aug/Sept 1994).
2. Energy level is too low to be effective for screening in the frequency range at which most products have their resonant frequencies. Also, damaging energy levels occur up to 20,000 Hz.
To avoid these problems, Quanta has developed a new ESS system that can be used with any electromagnetic or hydraulic shaker. Its uniqueness justified the award of a U.S. Patent in 1997 (U.S. Patent Number 05650569).
