    Cardan shafts problem

    Thank you electripete for the PDF. Unfortunately i tried to attach photos directly on the message but lot of error appear ... @greglocock This is exactly my idea for lot of reasons. If nothing is cahged for years and only in this period is changed i'm afarid that vendor could be changed...

    Cardan shafts problem

    Hello to everyone, i have really strange case about cardan shaft problems. I attachment you find some photos about one of the cardan shaft failured. This is paper mill company and have big trouble during last year. All motors are DC motors with one AC/DC drive per unit motor. Some indications...

    Best European or world predictive maintenance exibition

    I'm creating a new company branch as predicitve maintenance for customers so i need to buy some instrumentation. I've already bought a vibration portable instrument but because i want to provide more services i'm looking for the rest of instrumentation. Often the best opporunity is in exibitions...

    Strange gear tooth pattern

    Thank you to all guys @Strong Really the gear resonance could create these effect? It is a real case you follow up by yourself?

    Strange gear tooth pattern

    Hello Guys, in attachments you found some photo about strange gearbox tooth pattern found. Before the inspection i made some vibration measurement on it discovered this:4 -1XM in axial 13,5 mm/s -2XM in radial 16 mm/s -1XGMF 2mm/s THis machine is forming roll in a papaer machine...

    Kurtosis miss indication of impacting

    IRstuff i'm starting to use kurtosis as "new frontier to find bearing problem" as some salesman use to sell his products. Some other speak about technique to find impacting or impulsive signal.... I wanted to try personally and i found it is not really as aspected. Anyway i know some...

    Kurtosis miss indication of impacting

    Hello Guys, i have 2 data acquisition with 2 waveform one with impulse and one without. I made some calculation with my instruments and it is very easy to evaluate impulsiveness of the waveform. Why, instead, Kurtosis seems have missed this impulsiveness of the waveform? Let me know about your...

    Phase of the Frequency Response Function - FRF - Vibration

    Amin, look at higest peak, where you have enough energy to calulate correctly phase. Seems #2 resonance 12 and 37 Hz aprox. In 12Hz it is clear the change phase shift with 90degrees at resonant frequency. In order to well understand if your measurement is correct it is usefull to use choerence...

    Syncronous Magnetic Reluctance motor vibrations

    Just today I learned about the existence of synchronous magnetic reluctance motors. I'm trying to learn about the theory behind focusing on vibration measurements. I think that is as normal motor with some efficiency improvement but i think that in general some different vibrations could came...

    Transient current on 40MVA transformer

    Good morning everyone, i know during braker closing on 132KV system, transformer have a particular behavior. Firstly high current absortion called magentizing inrush current, this current have 10 times steady state current, have distortion because of core saturation. There are considerations...

    Gaussmeter to verify motor field problem

    @electripete yes this is what i want to understand. This technique is already used? It is really usefull as i think? Are commonly use in a investigation techniques?

    Gaussmeter to verify motor field problem

    @strong Exactly what i need, can you share here your experience with? Do you think good help in electric problem? What fault type this technology can reveal? Regard

    Gaussmeter to verify motor field problem

    @electripete i saw an SKF instrumentation (but i'm not certain) moving on rear of the motor to evaluate the magnetic flux of it but i don't remember details

    Gaussmeter to verify motor field problem

    Hello, i heard about possibility to make some measurements with gaussmeter (or similar) to check about winding condition of the motor, anyone have experiences about it? Could be usefull more than vibration analysis for electrical poiint of view? Could you suggest some device to try? Regards

    Motor load 50%of nameplate data

    @all Hy guys, unforntunately i can't really have possibilities to check speed of the motor with or without contact so the speed will be unnkown. @john2025 Right now i've no chance to evaluate pitch angle but could be an idea, but effectively this heat exchanger is more plugged respect other...

    Motor Energy Consuption Formula

    @jraef nameplate data of motors is 88A and 0,82cosphi some motor load is 82A with 0,8 cosphi>>>no problem one motor load is 60A with 0,6 cosphi>>>no process problem because all of this motor are FAN and probably the 60A load could be due to incorrect pitch angle of the blades, Suppose the...

    Motor Energy Consuption Formula

    Another consideration. How low PF impact in energy consuption? Low power on motor lower PF so, it is equal consumption of other motor with same KW but with high PF? Regards

    Motor Energy Consuption Formula

    Hello to everyone, this post came from another post but i want to threat in different because different object. The question is EASY[lol] I have VOLTAGE, CURRENT and V/I ANGLE I want to calculate the real energy consumption in a year. What formula i need? please give me a description of...
