Vibration analysis is one of the ways to monitor the health of rotating machinery in operation.
The objectives of this approach are:
- reduce the number of stops on breakdowns;
- increase the production tool reliability
- increase the availability rate;
- improve the management spare parts stocks
From the vibrations regularly collected on a rotating machine, vibration analysis is to detect any problems and to monitor their evolution in order to plan or postpone
mechanical intervention.
- Monitoring: the goal is to follow the evolution of a machine by comparing successive statements of its vibrations. A rising trend of some indicators compared to reference values constituting the signature, usually alert the technician on a probable malfunction. Ideally, the signature is established from a first measurement campaign on the new machine or revised;
- Diagnosis: it implements more sophisticated mathematical tools. It allows to select the defective machine element causing the abnormal vibrations, detected during the monitoring..
To perform monitoring and automatic diagnosis of 75% of the most common defects, in a simply and friendly way,, SYNERGYS TECHNOLOGIES has developed the VSHOOTER the first vibration analysis camera.
