Vibration Measurement
Ever greater demands
for quality in the market
The relevant maintenance procedures can be planned and carried out in good time. Unexpected loss of production can be avoided through condition-based maintenance using vibration measurements. Maintenance costs are reduced to the absolute minimum.
For vibration measurements we can provide our customers with tailor-made packages.
- Complete vibration studies of machines and systems
- Implementation of ON-LINE or OFF-LINE diagnostic systems for monitoring machines
- Assistance when selecting suitable measuring systems and components to be monitored
- Training on vibration measurement and on how to use diagnostic systems
... combined with increased productivity of machines and systems can only be achieved through condition- based maintenance and systematic quality assurance."
However, for this the operator needs to have suitable monitoring and diagnostic systems to provide reliable information on the condition of the system and production quality. A large number of measuring and test procedures are available for machine diagnosis. Vibration measurement has proved to be a particularly informative measuring procedure for rotating units. Results providing a considerable amount of information can be obtained with relatively little outlay.
In this way, a whole series of machine defects are diagnosed at an
early stage through vibration measurement:
- Imbalance
- Alignment faults/coupling damage
- Rotor damage
- Cracks in shafts
- Bearing damage
- Lubrication problems
- Gear damage
- Structural problems, etc.
Assesment of vibration levels in frequency analyses of vibration data; in this case, vibration acceleration Arms in m/s2
Monitoring of vibration data; in this case vibration acceleration Arms in m/s2
Example:
High amplitudes in the outer ring damage frequencies together with occurring multiples, especially in the frequency analysis of vibration acceleration, is characteristic for a damage of the outer ring.
