Vibration analysis is an extremely powerful diagnostic and data trending tool to determine quantitative changes in machine health of rotating equipment. Rotor imbalance, misalignment, bearing health, gear condition, mechanical looseness and so forth; these are just a few example conditions that can be trended and assessed for maintenance corrective action. Vibration analysis is the main tool in a strong condition-based monitoring program that requires expertise for effective results and return on investment. Proactive planning, scheduling and workflow should be fed results from your vibration CBM program.
