Diagnostics of rolling bearings is necessary to determine the condition of the bearings and prevent severe damage in rotating mechanisms and machines. Damage of the rolling bearings is established by measuring the shock pulse (vibration) that create. A sign of failure is increased bearing temperature, too.
Diagnostics of rolling bearings during operation of the machines is done by so-called Shock Pulse Method, which is a proprietary method of SPM Instrument with the possibility of a complete expert analysis, namely:
- Determination of the defects level in the bearings: the early onset of the microdemages on working surfaces, presence of defects and defects that can lead to accident consequences;
- Determining the quality of bearing and lubrication in real time - the thickness of the oil film between the working surfaces and rolling elements;
- Qualitative spectral analysis SPM Spectrum ™ of the shock pulses and identifying specific defects;
- Creating a rich database of the bearings that is connected with all their features;
- Specialized software for storage, analysis, evaluation and processing of the measurement results - CondMaster;
- Applaying the method Shock Pulse Monitoring.
Diagnostics of rolling bearings reduce the risk of damage to technological equipment and limit the downtime of machines.
