Abstract

In the paper results of experimental investigations of the system operator-handle-base have been presented. The aim of investigations was to record and analyse dynamical reactions of human operator volunteers participating in the experiments on a visual, suddenly appearing step signal. The main task of each operator was tracking of the signal as precisely as possible with a push force exerted on the tool handle. The measurements were done on an especially designed stand. The stand allows to simulate vibration of the tool with chosen frequencies with or without handle isolation. Time histories of step reference and forces realized by the operator were statistically elaborated and graphically presented.
