The course aims to train personnel capable of correctly acquiring vibration data with appropriate instrumentation and performing the most basic analyses.
The course aims to train personnel capable of correctly acquiring vibration data with appropriate instrumentation and performing the most basic analyses.
The course explores the following main topics:
Theoretical foundations of vibrations
• Physical phenomenon
• Period, Frequency, Amplitude
• Parameters, Displacement, Velocity, Acceleration
• Units of measurement and conversion
• Time and frequency domain
• Natural frequency, Resonance, critical speeds
Data acquisition
• Instrumentation, Transducers, Proximity sensors
• Sensor mounting
• Fmax, acquisition time
• Data transfer from instrument to PC and vice versa
• Recognition of erroneous data
Mechanical looseness
• Rolling bearing wear
Signal processing
• FFT application
• Types of averaging: Linear, Synchronous, Exponential
• Dynamic range
Condition Monitoring
• Database setup on PC, alarm configuration
• Alternative technologies: lubricant analysis, thermography
• Damage analysis
• Spectrum analysis, harmonics and sidebands
• Unbalance, Misalignment
Machinery knowledge
End-of-course test
Regulatory references (ISO)
Professionals who wish to obtain PCN Vibration Analysis Category 1 certification for authorization to perform vibration data acquisition in accordance with ISO standards.
Upon completion of the course, you will be able to acquire and analyze vibration data on industrial machinery, identify mechanical anomalies, and set up a structured condition monitoring system—skills also necessary to obtain PCN Vibration Analysis Category 1 certification.
At least 6 months of experience in activities related to maintenance, mechanics, rotating machinery, or condition monitoring is required.
The indicated fee is per participant.
