Vibration Analysis (VA), applied in an industrial or maintenance environment aims to reduce maintenance costs and equipment downtime by detecting equipment faults. VA is a key component of a Condition Monitoring (CM) program, and is often referred to as Predictive Maintenance (PdM). Most commonly VA is used to detect faults in rotating equipment (Fans, Motors, Pumps, and Gearboxes etc.) such as unbalance, misalignment, rolling element bearing faults and resonance conditions.
Course Coverage:
- Maintenance Practices
- Condition Monitoring
- Principles of Vibrations
- Data Acquisition
- Signal Processing

- Fault Diagnosis and Correction
- Setting Alarm Limits
Participant Profile:
This course is designed for maintenance supervisors, rotating machinery engineers, predictive maintenance technicians, reliability engineers, multi-skilled mechanics, students and all those who want to enhance their skills in vibration analysis.
Instructor Profile:
An experienced and highly qualified professional in the field of vibration analysis will conduct this course.
Methodology:
This course will be delivered through lectures, multimedia presentation, videos and hands-on practice on latest equipment.
Learning Outcome:
Participants will be able to understand how to select appropriate sensors and techniques for diagnosing typical machinery malfunctions. Participants will be taught to read vibration signatures and evaluate machinery condition from vibration data. Participants will understand how to isolate the affected machinery components, recognize various common problems, and make recommendations for continued operation or scheduled repairs.
