Rotating Asset Imbalance
What it is Unbalance is one of modern industrial machinery's most recognizable, pervasive, and fixable issues. It occurs when the center of mass of a rotating component (such as a rotor or impeller) is not aligned with its axis of rotation, i.e. the rotational center of gravity no longer aligns with the rotational center…

Coupling Degradation/Wear
Introduction Couplings are a component used to attach individual shafts together for the purpose of power transmission. They allow for multiple components to operate as a system and provide a means to simplify the disassembly process to isolate or replace single components. They are often problematic due to the complexity…

Resonance
One of the Augury fault cards that can be assigned to any component (motor, gearbox, pump, fan, a whole asset, etc…) is called Resonance. It is a very complicated topic; it can be difficult to understand, difficult to diagnose, and sometimes can be difficult or costly to repair. To understand what Resonance is, first we…

Bearing Lubrication
The disciplines of machinery lubrication and vibration analysis are both critical elements of a reliability-focused culture. Both enable us to stay on the left side of the revered potential failure-failure (P-F) curve. Unfortunately, even in the modern era, these programs often exist in a disconnected state, forgoing the…
