Vibration Monitoring / Remote Vibration Monitoring

Vibration monitoring is the easiest way to keep machines healthy and efficient in the long run. This reduces the overall operating cost as well as the down time period, increases plant availability and efficiency of rotating machines. To cope with global competition and pressure, every plant wishes a maximum uptime, hence maintenance planners are moving from active maintenance to proactive maintenance.

Our Vibration Monitoring Systems

Traditionally, plant maintenance was performed based on the Time Based Maintenance system (TBM), i.e. preventive maintenance. A schedule was set up on the basis of OEM manuals or time-based on MTBF (Mean time between failures) or past failure inputs were used for data analysis. However, the life of the machine can be extended, if online monitoring is done in a cost effective way

Vibration monitoring system, applied in an industrial or maintenance environment aims to reduce maintenance costs and equipment downtime by early detection of the fault. Vibration monitoring system is a key component of condition monitoring program and is often referred to as predictive maintenance of the rotating equipment.

All machines are subject to vibration. For example machine unbalance, misalignment and resonances can cause machines to vibrate above an acceptable level. A rise in vibrations is detrimental to machine health. This results in unexpected machine failure. To avoid this monitoring of vibration is needed.

Vibration monitoring devices use accelerometers to measure changes in amplitude, frequency, and intensity of forces that damage rotating equipment. Studying vibration measurements allows teams to discover imbalance, looseness, misalignment, structural looseness or bearing wear in equipment prior to failure.

Various types of Sensors are used for Vibration Measurement and Monitoring such as Accelerometer, Eddy Current or Capacitive Displacement, Velocity sensor etc.

Machine vibration monitoring is the most widespread method to determine the health of rotating equipment. Considering machine repair or replacement costs, loss of production, quality problems, environmental impact and other negative effects of deteriorating machine condition, the implementation of vibration monitoring is well justified.

We offer advanced vibration monitoring techniques for early detection of a wide variety of fault conditions such as unbalance, misalignment, resonance, looseness and faulty gears or bearings on all types of rotating machinery.
