Basic Handheld Vibration Tools
Christo van der Walt - Friday, February 17, 2012
In the entry level market where people need a basic handheld vibration tool to indicate vibration severity, two new instruments the Viber X2 and Viber X3 fit into this category.
These battery operated instruments measure the following:
Vibration measurements in 3 selectable frequency ranges
Bearing Condition measurement in wide f ..

"Vibration-monitoring sensors are used in conjunction with the mine's existing communication network to provide regularly updated statics on the large rotating equipment on the mine. This equipment is spread out over a wide area, making it difficult for individuals to access the machines regularly."

"Advancement in technology and methodology have made the ability to predict machine failure far simpler and more cost effective. Vibration monitoring technology, when adopted in a stepwise approach, cannot only prevent equipment damage and predict machine failure, but can also prevent production losses, which often run into millions. With increasing interest in proactive approaches to machine monitoring and maintenance, predictive maintenance systems have gained significant ground as the ideal method for monitoring rotating equipment."

"Machines that fail while in service often cost ten times as much to repair than if the repair was anticipated and scheduled. A well though out predictive maintenance programme has the potential to reduce the number of unexpected failures and provide a more reliable scheduling tool for routine preventative maintenance task. Many industries have reported a 2 - 10% productivity increase, due to predictive maintenance practices."

"In environments where machinery is used any combination of moving part creates stress and strains on equipment. Christo says that of the techniques of predictive maintenance that his company offers, two are that of vibration analysis and infra-red thermography. The latter work through a system similar to that of an infra-red camera, but instead of picking up heat discrepancies - as for example the cameras used in customs to measure human body temperature -his machine picks up temperature differences caused by friction between moving part on rotating machines."
