Analysis of bearing condition

The knowledge, why the bearing gets damaged, is the most important information, taking into account the possibility to prevent failure repetition. Frequently, the service personnel want to know, if and when the bearing must be replaced with the new one. Conventional measurement methods and unique monitoring method offered by SKF, that is the method with the use of special parameter called acceleration enveloping and HFD (High Frequency Detection) separately or jointly, are extremely effective tools to achieve best results. When you take into account the possibility to achieve large cost savings due to regeneration of bearings (which were removed from the machine in proper time), it becomes obvious for you that bearing condition monitoring is very important for all industries.

The User may carry out monitoring mentioned above either periodically or on-line in a continuous way by himself, due to various hardware and software solutions, or – when you don’t want to engage capital and outlay connected with personnel education and employment – you may order monitoring at experienced specialists, who are provided with proper tools, knowledge and experience.

Many possibilities – many solutions:

• pocket VibroPen for making general evaluations
• taking of vibration spectrum
• ibration spectrum analysis basing on individual bearing spectra (obtained from the constructional database)
• specialised on-line monitoring systems for bearing units
• on-line systems, which include the information on bearing condition amongst many other parameters of machine condition

We are able to evaluate the condition of your bearings and inform you when to start preparation for replacement of bearing very precisely.
