Following Bearing Damage Progression to Failure Mode

When vibration enveloping was introduced several decades ago, it became possible to detect damages in earlier stages than before, and it then became relevant to talk about realistic pre- warning times.

Adding Ultrasound Monitoring to Bearing CBM

Peter Eitnier of Wilcoxon talks about why vibration monitoring practitioners are adding ultrasound to their CBM program and how precision lubrication can extend the life of bearings.

Bearing Failure Modes and Monitoring

Detecting bearing failure modes at higher frequencies, and earlier in their progression, is key to extending the bearing life and ensuring the reliability of a machine. Bearing failure generally progresses through four main stages and across a wide range of frequencies.

Bearing Precision Lubrication and CBM using Vibration Monitoring and Ultrasound Detection

Under- and over-lubrication contributes to 40-70% of bearing failures. Precision lubrication can be achieved with ultrasound analysis and supported with vibration root cause analysis. Ultrasound monitoring can be used to hear and analyze the friction index of each bearing, indicate the precise amount of lubrication required, and extend the life of the bearing.
