Vibration Basics
When to measure Vibration in Displacement?
Vibration is the to and fro motion of an object from its mean position of rest. The actual distance moved in a particular direction is called as the Vibration Displacement. This Displacement is measured in mils, mm or microns. The movement from mean ...
What is meant by Overall Vibration?
Vibration is the to and fro motion of an object from it's mean position of rest. Motion of a Pendulum is an example of Vibration. Motion of a swing at a Park is an example of Vibration. Similarly, plant machines like Motors, Pumps, Fans and more ...
What is meant by Lines of Resolution in a Spectrum?
Vibration Spectrum is a 2 Dimensional Plot of Vibration Amplitude vs. Vibration Frequency - with Amplitude on Y Axis and Frequency on X Axis. Spectrum is usually captured using Data Acquisition Systems which could be in the form of Portable ...
What is meant by Transverse Sensitivity of a Vibration Sensor?
We live in a 3 Dimensional world. Objects are free to move along X, Y and Z coordinates. For any movement happening in X direction - Y and Z become the Transverse directions. Similarly, for any movement happening in Y direction - X and Z become the ...
Introduction to Vibration Analysis
What is Vibration Analysis and Why Vibration Analysis? What is Vibration? Vibration is the To & Fro motion of an object from its mean position of rest. In the three dimensional world surrounding us, an object can vibrate in all three dimensions. ...
Introduction to Condition Monitoring
What is Condition Monitoring and Why Condition Monitoring? How the need originates? Process Industries such as Power, Refineries, Food & Beverage, Automotive, etc. need to run continuously to meet the Demand. To run these industries, a variety of ...
Convert Vibration Amplitude from Acceleration to Velocity and Displacement
What is Vibration
Vibration is around us, everywhere. We are able to see some vibrations and some we are not able to see. Some vibrations we can feel, whereas some we can't. Well, then the question is - What is Vibration? Vibration is defined as the to and fro motion ...
Relation between Time, Frequency, Angles and Radians
1 Radian Vibration is a Periodic Motion. The time taken to complete one cycle of vibration is called as the Time Period of Vibration (T). This is measured in Seconds (s) The number of cycles of vibration completed in one second is called as the ...
