Efficient Vibration Data Collection For Condition Based Maintenance Programs
Condition-based maintenance is an important strategy used to achieve the quality and capacity that is required in manufacturing today. To achieve these goals, vibration analysis is helpful for determining rotating equipment condition and performance. Collecting correct and usable vibration data is critical to the success of any vibration analysis program. Unfortunately, there are challenges that must be overcome in order to provide this data that were not necessarily issues in the past.

Reducing Contamination Wins in the End
This presentation will address today’s global economic climate that creates tremendous pressure for facility owners and managers to decrease operating costs and increase company profits while remaining competitive. Added to the challenge is the struggle to achieve this goal without significant capital investment.

Condition-based Monitoring Development Platform, Extends Equipment Lifetime through Advanced Vibration Sensing
Piezo accelerometers have been the gold standard vibration sensor used for decades on the most critical assets. In some cases the cost of piezo sensors and accompanying hardware prohibited them from being installed on lower criticality assets. Over the last few years MEMS accelerometers have made huge leaps forward in noise and bandwidth performance, bringing them in line with piezo accelerometers.

What You Didn’t Know About Surge Testing
Preventing unscheduled downtime and expensive repairs should be the primary goal of every predictive maintenance program. Approximately 80% of electrical failures begin in the motor winding insulation, not the groundwall insulation. Unless a surge test is implemented, this critical winding insulation problem can’t be detected until it reaches the groundwall insulation due to extreme heat advanced by shorted turns: too late! Find out how the surge test works, why megohm or hipot testing will not detect winding insulation problems, and why this fantastic nondestructive test has

The Challenges with Planetary Gearboxes in Heavy Industrial Applications
In the field of vibration analysis, it is often argued that slow rotating components are the most challenging to monitor. When they are monitored, poor decisions and delayed detection are the result. However, just as with easily detectable high speed component faults, slow rotating components can have equal, if not better, success in early detection and prognosis.

Revolutionize Your Oil Sampling
The information in your oil analysis report is dependent on the sample submitted. A typical sample of 60 mL often represents a volume 1000 times or more. This 60 mL sample contains critical information such as oil condition, contaminants, and wear debris. If the sample is missing important data, your analysis may be inaccurate. Join us in discovering the keys to retrieving reliable oil samples. .
