| Routine Vibration Analysis |
 |
This predictive / proactive technology is applicable to the most diverse range of industrial equipment of any of the predictive techniques we offer. Vibration Analysis is mainly conducted on rotating machinery, with individual plant items marked and data sets recorded at regular intervals. Following the initial base lining survey, various data parameters can then be trended during subsequent visits.
The best manufacturers of portable vibration analysis equipment provide modules within their software to integrate and track the results of other predictive or proactive equipment, oil sample analysis or rotor balancing systems for example.
Vibration Analysis can identify the root cause of reoccurring equipment faults, and the solution of just one of these faults can in many cases recoup the capital cost of the equipment or service purchase.
Vibration Waveform Analysis
Vibration data is collected from either a magnet mounted or permanently fitted accelerometer transducer. This produces a ‘time waveform’ that is proportional to the vibration amplitude:
