Rotating Equipment Vibration and Monitoring

Introduction

Vibration- Monitoring is used to implement condition monitoring maintenance and as the name implies, entails the continuous assessment for machine vibration levels. Increasing vibration indicates a deterioration of the machine condition. A Vibration- Monitoring system gives warnings when vibration levels reach a preset level, and hence provides around- the - clock watch on vital machinery.

Objectives

    The training course aims to provide a treatment of the detection and diagnosis of faults in rotating equipment using vibration measurement and analysis. The course starts with an in-depth look at the measurement and the characteristics of vibration. Emphasis shall be laid on topics relevant to basics of vibration, vibration measurements, fault detection & diagnosis, analysis of bearing, coupling and other rotating machinery components.

Training Methodology

The training methodology is interactive with group exercises and is suitable for all employees involved in functions management. The pace and level of the training workshop is customized to the understanding of the delegates. Ongoing back-up and support is available after the training on request to the supplier, and the training course is also available for in-house presentation as well as for “Competency Transfer”.

Who Should Attend?

The training program is intended for technicians and engineers using vibration analysis and measurement as preventive maintenance and condition monitoring roles in the industry. It will act as a comprehensive introduction to the field of vibration
