Summary: | Machine condition monitoring is vital in
many plants as any shutdown can lead to both
materials and financial losses. Since vibration fault
signals and their causes are important for fault
detection and diagnosis, a Vibration Faults Simulation
System (VFSS) is developed to gain good
understanding of vibration faults signals. This paper is
aimed at simulating and analyzing vibration fault
signals, which can be useful for teaching and training
purposes especially for .companies dealing with
predictive maintenance. To achieve this a Vibration
Faults Simulation Rig (VFSR) is designed and
developed to simulate and study most common
vibration faults signals encountered in rotating
machines. A LabVIEW-based Data Acquisition
System (DAS) is used to process the fault signals. The
complete system was developed and tested and the
fault signals were compared with normal signals so as
to ascertain the condition of the machine under
investigation |
