What does machine health monitoring look like in an era of the online workday, personnel shortages, and supply chain hang-ups? These recent trends have influenced practices in predictive maintenance—including how data is collected, shared, and analyzed. Read on for five condition monitoring solutions to avoid manufacturing delays and optimize workflow.
This case study features a convection oven fan used in the customer's production process. Multiple welds and other repairs were made prior to the inspection. A service team was called in to balance the fan, but with Motion Amplification it quickly became clear that there was a serious structural issue.
We dive deep in conversation about our experiences in vibration Analysis and why we think it is so important for industry.
Some of the manufacturers of rotating equipment are individually testing and certifying their machines before they leave the facilities. But that does not necessarily mean that whole systems will be integrated together and work properly.
Before scrolling past what may appear to be another boring article about fluting, VFD’s, grounding brushes and ceramic bearings, I urge you to read on and join in the discussion.
Simply stated, viscosity is defined as the internal resistance of a fluid to flow. That doesn’t sound too difficult, does it?
One of the great things about Motion Amplification recordings is the fact that all of the data is recorded simultaneously. Because of this, there is a lot of phase information embedded in the data.
