Description
The purpose of modern-day machinery diagnosis is to carry out needs-based maintenance or repair and to minimise the repair and other servicing downtimes of a machine. The aim is to detect damage as it occurs.
The condition of a machine or of machine components can be accurately diagnosed from the nature and extent of its vibration. Accordingly, vibrations are measured, recorded
and evaluated using sensors and recording equipment.
Correct interpretation of the measurement signals requires a thorough understanding of the mechanisms at work and a degree of experience.
