Improving the reliability of your production assets requires a combination of people, processes and tools. For maintenance technician to diagnose issues during rounds portal machinery health analyzers play an important. We’ve shared how in posts such as Running Bump Test Helps Spot Machinery Resonance, Diagnostics to Detect Rotating Machinery Misalignment and Detecting and Analyzing Impact […]
When it comes to manually collecting vibration data on rotating equipment in your facility, getting it safely and efficiently is important—especially if there is a large number of assets. In this 3:54 YouTube video, CSI 2140 Speed Test, Emerson’s Mark Granger and Drew Mackley demonstrate how triaxial accelerometers coupled with the simultaneous four-channel data collection […]
In an earlier post, Portable Vibration Analyzer-Human Centered Design Style, I mentioned four-channel analysis plus phase capability. I checked with Emerson’s Johan Van Puyenbroeck to explain what this means for process manufacturing maintenance professionals. Multi-channel means the ability to collect data from multiple inputs. Triaxial (triax) accelerometers can measure vibration in the x-, y-, and […]
