Predictive maintenance to reciprocating machinery
To monitor the condition of reciprocating machinery, also known as piston compressors, traditional vibration measurement methods were applied for a long time. However, it became clear that these measurements are…
Automated vibration analysis – 4 considerations
In recent years, the application of condition monitoring and predictive maintenance has been growing significantly, due to increasing demands for machine availability and overall efficiency. Technological developments like big data,…
A brief history of vibration
In 1939, T.C. Rathbone published a paper called ‘Vibration Tolerance‘ in the magazine Power Plant Engineering. The ideas in this paper are considered the foundation of modern industrial vibration measurements.…
8 effects of machine vibrations
Monitoring machine vibrations affords greater control over the safety and availability of the equipment. It reduces unscheduled downtime and potential damage or failure can be resolved at an early stage.…
Choosing the right accelerometer mount: 6 effective methods explained
In a previous article, we wrote about 11 important considerations for choosing the right accelerometer. However, to achieve reliable measurement results, the mounting method is crucial for maximizing accuracy. Various…
Infographic: Which Vibration Monitoring Strategy fits my machine?
When it has been decided to start a machine condition monitoring program on a machine to start a predictive maintenance strategy, it appears that there a various possibilities how this can…
Who is responsible for process safety in a factory?
To ensure process safety in a factory, protective layers are used; risk-reducing measures. These protective layers can be related to people, the process, or the plant (and machinery). The greater…
How employee safety is influenced by corporate culture
The management of a company is always ultimately responsible for the safety of its employees. In the process industry, it is crucial to pay close attention to safety assurance, as…
How to determine the critical frequencies of rotating machinery
When a rotating machine reaches its resonant frequency, it can lead to severe damage to the machine (and the plant), injury to employees, and massive financial consequences. This must be…
How to test an overspeed monitoring system of a turbine
A turbine is designed to reach a maximum number of revolutions per minute (rpm), where the blades of the turbine can achieve enormous speeds. This limit must not be exceeded,…
