Vibration Analysis

Turn machine vibration into useful information for maintenance decisions.

Equipment we inspect

• Electric motors, pumps, fans and power transmission assemblies.
• Bearings, gearboxes and accessible measurement locations on rotating machinery.
• Machines with increased noise, vibration or recurring failures, as well as equipment following maintenance work.

What the analysis can reveal

Measurements can help investigate indications of imbalance, misalignment, mechanical looseness and bearing wear. Assessment combines the signal with rotational speed, load, machine construction and maintenance history.

How the inspection works

We define repeatable measurement locations and directions on the bearings and machine housing. We record speed and operating conditions and examine overall vibration levels, time waveforms and FFT frequency spectra, according to the scope and available data. Periodic inspections compare measurements against a baseline.

What you receive

• An equipment list and a map of measurement points.
• Results with units, measurement conditions and relevant plots.
• A technical assessment of findings and recommendations for confirmatory checks or maintenance actions.
• Trend comparisons where comparable historical measurements exist, and a recommended next inspection.

One-off inspection or periodic monitoring?

A one-off inspection investigates a specific symptom. Periodic monitoring creates a history, so changes can be assessed using consistent measurement locations and comparable operating conditions.

What we need for a quotation

The number and type of machines, power and speed, bearing details where known, symptoms, maintenance history, access and the available operating window.

One overall vibration value is not enough for a definitive diagnosis. Conclusions depend on measurement quality and available equipment information. Monitoring does not guarantee when a fault will occur; balancing, alignment or repair work is agreed separately. The scope and deliverables are defined in the written quotation.
