VIBRATION ANALYSIS

Vibration programs have been consistently able to:

  • Increased valuable facility uptime
  • Greatly reduced costly downtime
  • Greatly reduced catastrophic machine failures
  • Controlled inventory (parts can be ordered as problems are detected)
  • Reduce unnecessary repairs made to the wrong equipment
  • Verified that new equipment is working & installed properly

Some examples of problems that can be detected are: Bearing failures, coupling wear/misalignment,
structural & mechanical looseness, imbalance, electrical problems in motors, gear defects, resonance,
cavitation in pumps, drive belt wear/misalignment.

PTI can fulfill your facilities needs with a regularly scheduled vibration program to predict mechanical
problems and failures before they cause costly down time. With our detailed reports, you can better
plan your maintenance time and reduce repair costs. The most serious problems can be worked on
to optimize your limited planned shut downs.

We will work with you to create a custom program to best suit your facility.
