About Us
35 years of expertise in acoustics and vibration. Approximately 4,000 successful installations.
We provide total support for vibration and noise countermeasures design, from system implementation to technical consulting.
CATEC has been operating for over 35 years, specializing in the field of acoustics and vibration measurement, and develops and sells its own vibration and noise measurement system, the CAT-System"" series.
In addition to providing a general-purpose system that uses commercially available A/D boards and completes measurement and analysis on a single PC, we excel at building ""customized systems"" tailored to the customer's unique experimental environment and output format.
Furthermore, in addition to providing systems, we also offer technical consulting such as commissioned analysis and technical seminars, providing total support for challenges related to acoustics and vibration.
What is the CAT-System series?
The CAT-System is an acoustics and vibration measurement system that completes everything from experimental data measurement to analysis and report creation on a PC.
We offer two models: the standard ""CAT-System"" based on FFT analysis and octave analysis, and the higher-end ""CAT-System Pro"" which enhances work efficiency through simultaneous measurement and analysis processing. In addition to standard functions, we offer flexible configurations tailored to customer specifications, including various measurement and analysis options, data loggers for measuring temperature, strain, etc., and additional functions suited to the characteristics of various products such as automobiles.
Strengths of the CAT Series
Customizability for On-Site Measurement and Analysis
In addition to acoustics and vibration, it is possible to integrate and measure and analyze multifaceted data necessary for product development, such as temperature, strain, and rotational pulses. While keeping customization costs, which tend to be high with major manufacturers, down, we flexibly build dedicated systems tailored to the customer's experimental environment and the characteristics of specific parts (motors, transmissions, etc.). We realize specifications that match the detailed needs of the field.
User-Friendly Operation & Convenient Automatic Report Generation Function
"With an easy-to-understand user interface and automatic report generation function, the entire process from measurement to graph output to Excel, and report creation can be completed within a single system. Even field personnel with limited specialized knowledge can perform measurements and analyses without errors.
Furthermore, it can output data in various database specifications (optional) and has excellent compatibility with other systems. It contributes to improving work efficiency in development and manufacturing sites."
