Vibration and wear particles analysis in a test stand
Abstract
Purpose
This paper aims to provide information on wear debris on oil and vibration analysis as predictive maintenance techniques.
Design/methodology/approach
The estate of a reducer is verified by analyzing the vibration and oil conditions of a test rig under some variables.
Findings
According to the vibration and oil analysis it was found what was happening in the reducer without disassembling it.
Originality/value
This paper gives information about two predictive maintenance techniques with a test rig.
