Intelligent Machine Monitoring
“Intelligent Machine Monitoring” is a video production from experts for experts. Viewers learn basics of signal analyses as well as advanced topics to improve the results of their daily work. Enjoy the movies and feel free to share your thoughts in the comments section. We are also open for your suggestions for topics to be explained and discussed.
Safety Integrity Level (SIL) explained
During the video you will learn more about how an operator can assess the SIL (Safety Integrity Level), or PFD (Probability of Failure on Demand) requirements and the key parameters.
Monitoring of gears, gearboxes and gear mesh
Learn about gear mesh frequency calculation, how to acquire vibration [...]
Learn why automatic threshold adjustment is superior when operating conditions are changing
The advantage of flexible reciprocating machines is the disadvantage when [...]
How to detect liquid carryover in reciprocating machinery

This second part is about the challenges in the analysis [...]
Monitoring of Rolling Element Bearings (Part 1)
Tutorial for understanding the important basics of rolling element bearing monitoring. Learn what BPFO, BPFI, 2BS and FTF mean and how to detect impending bearing failures. The basis are time waveform readings from acceleration sensors that need to be transformed into FFT spectra with the specific frequency components.
Customer Case Studies
Customer case studies are real life cases reporting advantages of Online Condition Monitoring and Machine Protection.
Misalignment of a Gearbox
The PROGNOST®-Predictor was showing several impacts in the tie waveform of a 24' Raymond gearbox. This was a first indication of a tooth problem on one of the gears. After several other analysis work the failure was localized and later findings inside of the gearbox showed the high accuracy of PROGNOST®-Predictor.
Detection of bearing failure in a large extruder gearbox
After a longer failure history with this gearbox, the customer decided to replace the installed spot measurement by a reliable online monitoring system. The customers´ decision-making process was supported by an open communication between the operator, the PROGNOST Systems team and the gearbox OEM.

Practical experiences with Fuzzy Logic and Neural Networks
Insight into the basic techniques and special challenges associated with the application of automatic diagnosis to reciprocating compressors
Early Recognition of abnormal Wear Conditions
Residual abrasive contaminants in new process units can cause rapid wear of rider bands in reciprocating compressors. Those abnormal wear conditions can be detected at an early stage by continuously monitoring the proximity measures. As a result, costly damages to the compressors can be avoided.
SIL and functional safety in rotating equipment
Unraveling the terminology and meaning of safety integrity level and functional safety in rotating equipment
Challenges associated with the application of automatic diagnosis to Rotating Equipment
The past 20 years have seen continuous progress in the technological means available for monitoring the condition of Rotating Equipment.
