Vibration Analysis refers to the process of measuring the vibration levels and
frequencies of rotating machinery (Industrial/Commercial) and using that
information to determine the “Health” of the machine and its components.
Vibration Analysis (VA), applied in an industrial or maintenance environment
aims to reduce maintenance costs and equipment downtime by detecting equipment
faults.

When a problem does appear on a piece of equipment, it generally falls under the
jurisdiction of the machinery diagnostician/vibration Analyst to resolve the
difficulty and recommended an appropriate course of corrective action. These
individuals must be familiar with problem solving techniques and proven
methodology for correcting the machinery malfunction. Clearly, the diagnostician
must be qualified in many technical disciplines. The basic areas of expertise
include knowledge of machinery, knowledge of physical behavior, plus knowledge
of instrumentation. Competence in these three areas is only achieved by a
combination of knowledge and field experience. At VibeLube, we deliver this
level of competency to our clients.



Iraj (Roy), founder/CEO of VibeLube, is an outstanding technologist and
vibration analyst who conducts all inspections, analysis and reporting in a
professional manner. Roy enjoys of extensive knowledge & experience in machinery
maintenance, reliability & condition monitoring for over 30 years. He holds
Mechanical Engineering Degree (1986) as well as valid certifications in
Vibration Analysis and other Condition Monitoring technologies.

Diagnosis / Troubleshooting / Root Cause Analysis

 * * Any abnormal noise, vibration, temperature, pressure and current draw are
     indication of a problem or defect in machine components. If left
     unattended, the defect can progress to a failure and costly repairs.
     On-site mechanical inspection and hands on examination is a significant
     part of any machinery diagnosis. Vibration analyst collects vibration data
     as well as other parameters and performs analysis for detecting defect(s)
     followed by corrective actions.
   * Unbalance, misalignment, incorrect belt tension, poor lubrication
     practices, incorrect machine operation, and resonance are common root
     causes of failures in rotating machinery, however many others exist.
     Whenever the vibration analyst detects a fault in the machine, he or she
     should always attempt to determine the root cause. Once the root cause is
     identified measures should be taken so that root cause is eliminated. It is
     clever to be able to detect a bearingdefect, but it is not very clever if
     the same bearing exhibits the same fault condition just months later. The
     vibration analyst will need to determine the most appropriate action that
     he or she can take at their place of work to avoid a repeat of the fault.





Resonance Correction

Resonance occurs when a machine generates vibration at a frequency close to a
natural frequency of
the rotor or structure. Resonance greatly amplifies the vibration amplitude; the
high vibration
amplitude reduces the life of the bearings and the machine structure. The
vibration analyst can get
involved in two ways:

 1.  First the vibration analyst can identify the source of vibration that is
    exciting the natural frequency and seek to reduce that vibration amplitude.
    For example, if there is unbalance which is exciting the natural frequency
    then one solution is to simply balance the machine.
 2.  The second way that the vibration analyst can help is to perform tests that
    identify the natural frequencies and then propose modifications to the
    structure so that the natural frequencies no longer correspond to the
    frequencies being generated by the machine. The most common situation is
    where the running speed of the machine corresponds with the natural
    frequency, however other sources of vibration such as the pump vane rate,
    blade passing frequencies and other can also excite natural frequencies. It
    may be necessary to increase the stiffness of the structure to increase the
    natural frequency so that it is no longer excited by the vibration generated
    by the machine.



Commissioning / Acceptance Testing

There is often an assumption that components, lubricants and the machines
themselves are in perfect condition when they are purchased. Sadly, this is not
always the case. Bearings may not be transported or stored correctly and may
suffer from false-brinelling. Lubricants may not meet cleanliness
standards.Rotating machinery may suffer from resonance and other conditions when
operated under normal conditions. Too often rotating machinery are not designed
with energy efficiency and reliability in mind; instead they are designed with
purchase cost in mind. Acceptance testing provides a way to test that machines
and components are in good condition before they are installed in the plant.
Acceptance testing puts pressure on the supplier to make sure they are
delivering the highest quality products. Acceptance testing guidelines can
include specifications on several parameters, but from the vibration analyst’s
perspective the key standard is to set vibration limits that may not be
exceeded. Tests may be performed at the OEMs workshop or after being installed
on-site. It is important the conditions for the test are clearly specified,
including RPM, load, and mounting. Acceptance testing should not only be
performed on new equipment, it should be performed when repair and overhaul work
is performed. This can include motor rewinds, rotor balancing, and pump or
compressor rebuilds.



Condition Monitoring (Predictive Maintenance)

Condition Monitoring (CM) which is often referred to as Predictive Maintenance
(PdM) is monitoring of
parameters such as vibration, noise, temperature, pressure and current on
machine components for
tracking changes and verifying its condition. Monitoring can be done
periodically or continuously.
Vibration Analysis as a key component of a CM/PdM program will always be
required, even when the
best reliability improvement programs are well-established.

VibeLube is a premier provider of predictive machine condition monitoring and
analysis services that
align with customers’ high standards for reliability, availability and uptime.
VibeLub’s Reliability Services
utilize flexible deployment models, proven diagnostic software and unmatched
analytical expertise to
deliver sustainable, scalable and cost-effective condition-based maintenance
programs. The company’s
bundled solutions enable customers to choose comprehensive, proven programs that
ensure asset
availability and maximize productivity.



Dynamic Balancing / Alignment (Predictive Maintenance)

Mass Imbalance, as well as Shafts Miss-Alignment are the most common causes of
high vibrations in
rotating equipment. Balancing reduces rotating forces which can damage bearings
and the machine
structure. Likewise shaft alignment reduces the stress on bearings, couplings,
and the shaft itself. For
smooth & safe operation of any rotating equipment, it is recommended to check
vibrations and perform
balancing & alignment, particularly when they are new installed machines or
newly repaired or
overhauled.

VibeLube offers expert field balancing, alignment and vibration
analysis services. We bring extensive
experience along with the most advanced portable instrument and software to your
plant to perform an excellent job.
