Machinery Diagnostics Methodology


Overview

Course Description

The hands-on approach for this course gives students the experience they need to feel confident when taking action at their plant. This is a "must have" course for those who interpret or plan on interpreting machine vibration and position data to determine machine condition.

Who should attend
  • Engineers who interpret machine vibration and position data to determine machine condition
  • Engineers involved in the design, acceptance testing and maintenance of rotating machinery
  • Engineers who want to learn about machinery vibration diagnostics


Objectives
  • Explain how the fundamentals of machine design and behavior are reflected in the vibration measurements.
  • Reduce machine vibration data into usable plot formats.
  • Explain which plot formats are best to use in the different stages of machine diagnostics.
  • Describe the causes, effects and indicators of the typical machine malfunctions; including recognition of problems such as unbalance, misalignment, rubs, shaft cracks and fluid induced instabilities.
