Rotating Mechanical Looseness
Augury specifies two types of Looseness in their fault cards: Structural Mechanical Looseness and Rotating Mechanical Looseness. Whenever someone reads the word “Looseness” in a fault card, their mind usually immediately thinks about loose bolts on the machine. However, that kind of problem is actually covered under a…

Shaft Misalignment
Evidence suggests that as much as 50% of machine breakdowns can be directly attributes to incorrect shaft alignment. What is shaft alignment? Shaft alignment is the process whereby two or more machines are positioned such that at the point of power transfer from one shaft to another, the axes of rotation of both shafts…

Structural Mechanical Looseness
Augury specifies two types of Looseness in their fault cards: Structural Mechanical Looseness and Rotating Mechanical Looseness. The structure of a rotating asset plays a vital role in determining the reliability and life span of the asset. It is critical to identify and correct any type of faults that exist with the…
