Ultrasound Monitoring & Analysis

Monitoring bearing condition through ultrasonic shows us evolving trends in friction levels, random impacting, rubbing, spalling, and other defects at the earliest stage of failure. In most cases ultrasound analysis will reveal the onset of failure long before they show up in vibration analysis reports and thermal imaging surveys. Ultrasound is especially useful for slow speed bearings and machines that do not rotate.

Frequently Asked Questions

These high frequency sound waves are used by devices that are ultrasound vibration sensors to detect the condition of mechanical assets, such as bearings and rotating equipment. They can detect the sound that is produced by the equipment and then determine its condition by analysing it.

For applications where roller bearing units are normally employed, it is sometimes advantageous to determine the condition of the bearing units at regular intervals or to monitor continuously to ensure detection of bearing damage at an early stage. Vibration analysis and temperature measurement are the most reliable ways to do these.

As a bearing falls or deteriorates in lubrication level, the potential for friction in the bearing increases. The ultrasound amplitude level will rise also, and these can respective be noted and heard.

Ultrasound technology can alert you when components start to fail, so you can still detect any change in their sonic signature which is a sign of a bearing failure before it is too late. In addition, ultrasound technology is used in condition-based lubrication programs which means that parts are only greased as needed.

Through Monitoring Bearing Condition, we can detect. Usually, machine bearings are monitored by vibration analysis, oil analysis, ultrasound or a combination of any of the preceding.
