| Machinery Vibration:
Measurement and Analysis |
| by Victor Wowk, 368pp,
245 illus, ISBN: 0070719365 |
 |
Ninety percent of all machine failures are signaled months, even years,
in advance by changes in machine vibrations.
Some future failures are even
predictable upon initial start-up.
By understanding a machine's vibration
"signature," you can diagnose, solve, and prevent problems, as well as
reduce the cost of maintenance.

Machinery Vibration: Measurement and Analysis will show you how
to use state-of-the-art instrumentation, transducers and fast Fourier transform
(FFT) spectrum analyzers-to monitor machine conditions using the vibration
signature. This expert sourcebook includes: |
-
Case histories that illustrate
strategies for solving machinery problems-from unbalances and misalignments
to vortex flow and turbulence
-
A diagnostic chart for assessing
the severity of vibration
-
An overview of technology used
in "trending" machine performance
-
Guidelines for setting up a
vibration monitoring system
-
Many illustrations throughout
the book

Whether you're a plant or mechanical engineer, maintenance engineer, facility
manager, mechanic, or technician, this excellent book will enable you to
troubleshoot mechanical problems and improve machinery performance. |
