SEMINARS: Advanced Vibration Diagnostic and Reduction Techniques: Vibration Analysis Training & More by Technical Associates of Charlotte, North Carolina

Advanced Vibration Diagnostic and Reduction Techniques

ISO Category IV (Part 2)

Seminar Fee: $1895	(return to main Classes page)

Optional ISO Category IV Certification Testing is available at a cost of $250 on the last day.

Add a Pocket Vibration Diagnostic Handbook for $49.
Delivered to you at the Seminar.

OBJECTIVE

This newly updated seminar completes coverage of all training requirements for ISO Category IV Certification as per the ISO 18436-2 document.

(1) Provides in-depth coverage of Special Diagnostic Techniques required not only to detect numerous faults on machinery or structures, but also gives real insight on fault severity.

(2) Follows with fault correction giving in-depth Vibration Reduction Techniques.

(3) Introduces Modal and Operating Deflection Shape analysis.

(4) Newly developed section on Rotor Dynamics (including a special Sleeve Bearing Failure Analysis paper) completes the information an analyst needs to prepare for the new ISO Category IV exam.
