Vibration Monitoring for Paper Machines

Every minute of unplanned downtime for a paper machine represents lost revenue. Maintenance and reliability engineers monitor vibration to avoid costly repairs and breakdowns by detecting early warnings of faults such as imbalance, misalignment, looseness, and lubrication issues.

Real-Life Case Study: Sensorless Pump Performance Monitoring with Electrical Signature Analysis Technology

Join us for a deep dive into a real-world case study where we analyzed the performance of a dirty water pump using Electrical Signature Analysis (ESA)—without the need for external sensors like flow or pressure. In this session, you’ll see how our system detected low-efficiency operation, identified the pump’s operating point on the curve, and provided actionable efficiency improvement suggestions tailored to the customer’s application priorities.

Enterprise-wide Condition Monitoring Solution for Reciprocating Compressors

Reciprocating compressors play a critical role in a number of industries but require more maintenance than a comparable turbo-compressor. An effective condition monitoring and diagnostics strategy therefore plays an extremely important role for reducing downtime and life cycle costs of these machines while increasing reliability, safety, integrity and efficiency...

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.
