Bearing Failure Analysis Software 5

LT22 · Dec 2, 2005

I have recently been given the responsibility of analyizing the cause of bearing failures for all different types of bearings. I have some experience with this, however, if there is some software or downloads available with photographs that I can obtain for comparative analysis, it would be very helpful.

LT22: Bearingf manufacturers sometimes provide illustaions and possible causes of bearing failures. Start there

I have a great report that explains bearing failures. It is very comprehensive with plenty of illustrations.

It is from EPRI (Electric power research institute)
Perpared by Mechanical Technology, Inc Latham, NY
Report #: GS-7352
Project #: 1648-10
July 1991

Hope this helps.

To start wiith.

Those handheld bearing analysers are regarded to work very well. A scan with a heat camera will also tell of problems to come.
