Case Studies
Early detection of gearbox failure
Based on historic vibration data collected by sensors in a gearbox shaft, MultiViz Vibration detected asset failure two months before it happened. Automatic Mode Identification found a new operational mode in the equipment, caused by inner raceway failure in the high-speed shaft bearing, which ultimately led to the replacement of the entire gearbox.
Challenge
Early detection of asset failure based on data collected from vibration sensors.
Solution
Automatic Mode Identification found a new operational mode in the equipment, caused by inner raceway failure in the high-speed shaft bearing.
Atypical asset detection in a windfarm
Based on vibration data collected by sensors in bearings, MultiViz Vibration identified the two most atypical wind turbines in a wind farm. The behavior was caused by electrical problems with sensor installation and a major failure that ultimately led to the replacement of an entire gearbox.
Challenge
Discovering which machines need to be prioritized for maintenance in a pool of assets.
