Level Vibration Analysis - A Hands-On Approach
This
three day seminar is intended for those  with little or no vibration
experience and prepares participants for the ANALYSIS
I
course. It
allows everyone to get a hands-on feel for how vibration can
properly be used to detect various problems in rotating machines.
Basic vibration theory is presented to give each student an understanding
of vibration as it relates to machine condition, along with hands-on
demonstrations and class exercises designed to show proper data
collection techniques.
Measurement pitfalls are discussed, along with their adverse effect
on machine problem diagnosis, and how they are critical to evaluating
the severity of problems detected.
PdM Database setup is introduced, using PdM software offered by
several different vendors, along with route building, loading
& unloading a series of data collectors offered by a number
of different vendors. These techniques are thoroughly taught by
having each student apply them using data collectors offered by
several different vendors on a series of motor demonstrators.

SEMINAR RELEASE: This seminar is in response to our previous
seminar exit surveys where there have been overwhelming
requests for a new course that will allow everyone to get
a hands-on feel for how vibration can properly be used to
detect various problems in rotating machines.
Basic vibration theory is presented to give
each student an understanding of vibration as it relates
to machine condition, along with hands-on training required
to demonstrate proper data collection.
|
| Prerequisites: Little or no previous vibration experience
will be required to take this class. However, no Vibration
Analyst can truly be effective without some basic skills
and previous experience in maintenance of the machines which
will be included in the program. General familiarity with
using a calculator and a computer along with good math skills
in Arithmetic and simple Algebra is helpful.
