From 14 mm/s to under 4 mm/s: Solving ACC resonance with precision engineering
WHEN AN Energy from Waste (EfW) power station introduced a new process speed, they hit an unexpected snag: a massive spike in structural vibration.

Vibration analysis is a key tool in condition-based maintenance for air compressors, detecting early signs of bearing wear, imbalance and misalignment without halting production. Moving from fixed-interval servicing to data-led decisions helps prioritise work, avoid needless overhauls and pave the way for predictive maintenance, explains Ben John
In the context of measuring vibration, there are two key metrics which can tell us how well a machine is running and the condition of its bearings
TEST PRODUCTS International (TPI) Europe will be showcasing its affordable solutions to industries’ predictive and proactive maintenance approach at Maintec 2024.
HANSFORD SENSORS, the leading global manufacturer of industrial accelerometers is set to showcase its comprehensive range of vibration monitoring products at Maintec 2024.
WDS COMPONENTS is now providing anti vibration mounts as a complete kit to enable fast and simple procurement and installation.
Protecting smaller, yet critical rotating plant such as industrial fans and pumps has become increasingly important. But, achieving the right balance of cost versus benefit can be challenging, says Russell King
Forward-thinking organisations do not want to be in a reactive maintenance cycle, and more maintenance professionals are now recognising the value of a proactive approach – rewarding prevention of the maintenance issue rather than the reactive hero, explains Gary Harvey
HANSFORD SENSORS has recently designed and developed a range of new triaxial 4-20mA transmitters.
A RANGE of anti-vibration mounts used to reduce noise and increase performance across a range of machinery types is now available in stainless steel.
