VIBRATION

Vibration – Don’t let it shake your bottom line.

Unplanned equipment breakdowns are more than just an annoyance but can have serious implications to the operations of a facility and can create major downtime and costs. That's why Westburne and Fluke are teaming up in this four part blog series to help you identify four key maintenance red flags to help keep your equipment running. In today's post, we introduce helpful information about equipment vibration.

Understanding why vibration occurs and how it manifests itself, is the first step towards preventing vibration and the trouble it can cause in the production environment.

How do plant maintenance professionals distinguish between acceptable, normal vibration, and harmful vibration that requires immediate service or replacement of equipment?

Fluke can help - with vibration testing, and laser shaft alignment equipment and systems. Designed to quickly perform vibration analysis and evaluate alignment to help you understand the root cause of your equipment’s condition.
