Vibration Analysis/Predictive Maintenance
Our vibration analysis service compares industry thresholds, similar equipment, and each machine's history to help identify emerging malfunctions as early as possible. Vibration analysis is a highly effective predictive solution that helps minimize repair costs and avoid equipment failures and associated downtime.
Our solution can help diagnose a range of issues in a wide variety of components, including:
- Motors
- Spindles
- Shaft imbalances
- Gears
- Belt wear
- Pumps
- Bearings
- Fans
How It Works
When mechanical components vibrate in ways they aren’t meant to, they can experience continuous, uneven wear. Over time, this can lead to equipment failure, resulting in downtime for repairs and costly interruptions to regular operations.
To combat vibration, our experts use advanced vibration analysis technology that takes data readings and thermographic images of equipment while it’s running. They then process this data and compare it with industry averages and previous readings to identify deviations from the norm. This helps us detect equipment problems well before they become emergencies and allows clients to plan and take lower-cost corrective actions that are less disruptive to regular business operations.
Vibration Analysis Can Help Prevent
- Major repairs and costly replacements
- Increased maintenance costs
- Time-consuming shutdowns
- Higher energy costs from declining equipment efficiency
- Damage to other equipment and/or parts caused by the improper operation of failing components
- Unnecessary waste from replacing parts that may still be functioning properly
