Case Study: Condition Monitoring & Precision Alignment – Energy Efficiency

Sven Fleischer, Area Sales Manager, Pruftechnik S.E.A. Pte Ltd

Description

A case study about the importance of good maintenance practices based on condition monitoring. How does precision alignment and vibration monitoring bring about energy efficiency and savings?
Effective maintenance methodologies for vibration that we will review include:

  • Trend monitoring
  • Diagnosis (bearing damage)
  • Root cause analysis
  • Precision laser alignment

In this session, we will discuss more than just vibration, we will discuss how to measure energy consumption and calculate the cost savings per year. We will also examine the importance of analyzing trends in your alignment data (machines can become misaligned over a short period of time, caused by weather or foundation).
