Vibration Analysis
Vibration measurement and analysis is a vital part of determining the condition of your assets.
Vibration is measured, typically using a sensor to measure the acceleration, on different parts of rotating machines.
It is a an good early-detection system for faults on rotating equipment resulting from:
- Unbalance
- Bearing damages
- Gearboxes: Tooth wear
- Misalignment
- Bent shaft
- Loosness
- Motor damages
- and much more…
Vibration analysis should be done on a regular basis, in order to always have a correct knowledge of an asset.
“…But I know that my machine can vibrate with XX mm/s without any problem…”
Vibration Analysis is much more than just measuring the sum of the vibration (in mm/s).
Through the analysis , the source of the vibration can be determined, and any increase of a damage can be detected.
