Introduction
Your machines are talking to you
Classification: Internal Use
Type Of Maintenance
What are its different types?
Classification: Internal Use
Type Of Maintenance
1- Reactive maintenance
break down maintenance also know as run ti failure .hysterical
fix it whenit break
2-Preventive maintenance
know as schedule maintenance .planned maintenance historical maintenance
perform regular so that machin will not fail
Classification: Internal Use
3-Redective Maintenance
Also know as condition based maintenance
If it aint broke don’t fix it
Machin warn you when they about to fail
4-Proactive Maintenance
Precision .reliability centered machine
Type Of Maintenance
Classification: Internal Use
What is vibration?
Vibrations are oscillations of a system about an
equilbrium position.
Classification: Internal Use
Vibration…
It is also an everyday
phenomenon we meet on
everyday life
Classification: Internal Use
Vibration
Noise
Destruction
Compressor
Ultrasonic cleaning
Testing
Wear
Fatigue
• Useful Vibration Harmful vibration
Classification: Internal Use
Vibration parameters
All mechanical systems
can be modeled by
containing three basic
components:
spring, damper, mass
When these components are subjected to constant force,
they react with a constant
displacement, velocity and acceleration
Classification: Internal Use
How can we utilize vibration ?
• Amplitude
An indication of the severity
(amplitude is important ,but change in amplitude is more
important )
• Frequency
An indication of the nature of the fault
(many tools are available to interpret the pattern)
• Motion
An indication of the structural response
(use phase to learn more about the fault and check for
resonance )
Classification: Internal Use
Vibration frequency
• Different components within the machine
generate different frequencies :shaft.vanes
and blades
• Vibration at those frequencies tells us what
part of the machine maybe damaged
• Its hard to look at waveform and relate the
vibration to the machine
Classification: Internal Use
The origin of the spectrum
and waveform
• Here we will see the waveforms and spectrum
Classification: Internal Use
Spectrum analysis basics
• Multiple sources of vibration
Motor and fan frequencies
Classification: Internal Use
A litile more complicated
(belt drive haves the speed )
Classification: Internal Use
Even more complicated
•Gearbox frequencies
Classification: Internal Use
Introducing “harmonics a” and “sidebands”
• Harmonics : what happens when the vibration is not smooth
• Nice,smooth,simple vibration: simple spectrum
• Single ,dominate source of vibration.
• One main peak in the spectrum
Classification: Internal Use
Complicated vibration: complicated spectrum
• More than one source of vibration
• Vibration that is not smooth
(non-linear /distorted)
Classification: Internal Use
Complicated vibration impact:harmonics
:impacts:harmonics
• Multiple peaks in the spectrum at the key
forcing frequency for exaple:
• Running speed :looseness
• Bearing frequency:wear,spall
Classification: Internal Use
• Apeak at the driving frequency (gearmesh)
• Peaks on either side of that .separated by the modulation
frequency (runnig speed)
Sidebands:what happens when the amplitude is not
consistent
complicated vibration :modulation :sidebands
Classification: Internal Use
complicated vibration :modulation :sidebands
Sidebands can take allsorts forms
Lots of fault comdition generate sidebands
Bearing gearbox motor pump
Classification: Internal Use
complicated vibration :modulation :sidebands
Classification: Internal Use
complicated vibration :modulation :sidebands
• Harmonics(becouse becouse the impacts)
• Sidebands(becouse the amplitude rise and falls
as the balls go throughload zone)
Classification: Internal Use
Time waveform analysis
• The time wave form is used to generated the
pectrum – you don’t have to collect extra data
• The wave form showsyou what happened from
one moment to the next –the
spectrumsummarizes everything that
happened the data was recorded
Classification: Internal Use
Examples
lets look at few example where the
time waveform has helped in the
diagnostic process
Classification: Internal Use
Damaged inner race of bearing
Classification: Internal Use
Rotating loosness
Classification: Internal Use

Gear box tooth damage
Classification: Internal Use
