Vibration Analysis

Vibration Analysis is the most frequently deployed CBM technology on the market today. Why? As Art Crawford, the foremost expert on Vibration once stated, “There is no single measurement available that contains more information about the mechanical condition of a machine than the vibration signature.”

Simply put, Vibration Analysis has the ability to detect a large number of failure modes across a multitude of asset bases.

What are some of the more common failure modes that Vibration Analysis detects?

  • Imbalance
  • Misalignment
  • Bent shaft
  • Bearing issues
  • Structural looseness
  • Gear wear
  • Cavitation
  • Cracked or broken gear teeth
  • Chain looseness
  • Rolling element bearing defects
  • Resonance
  • Sheave run-out
  • Fluid and airflow problems
  • Many electrical problems
