- 13. Vibration Analysis More than20 years ago someone made the statement, “The vibrations produced in a machine are the best indication of the machine’s health.” This statement still holds true today. Of all the predictive maintenance (PdM) technologies, vibration analysis remains the best measure of machine health. This is true because vibration monitoring can alert us to so many different conditions that may indicate potential machine failures. Unbalance, misalignment, bearing faults, resonance, looseness, cavitations and electrical problems are just a few of the many problems that can be detected with vibration monitoring.

Editor's Notes
- #42 Cutting wear particles are curved, forming loops and spirals, much like miniature machining swarf. Another Scanning Electron Photomicrograph of Cutting Wear Particles. In this view some large, abrasive contaminant particles may also be seen.
- #44 Metal spheres may be generated by welding and grinding. Fly ash from coal fired power plants contain large numbers of both ferrous (magnetic) spheres and glass (nonmetallic and transparent) spheres. Metal spheres are generated in large numbers at steel mills and foundries. Scanning Electron Photomicrograph of Ferrous Spheres. On rare occasions, ferrous spheres may be generated by the surfaces of rolling element bearings as a precursor to fatigue spalling. Spheres generated by this wear mode are all of the same approximate size and are small, less than 5 µm.
