Vibration Diagnostics Checklist

How do you determine that vibration is the problem?

Checklist

You know you have a problem.  Every time you run a specific part, the product is out of spec. One of the reasons this happens is due to vibration. This handy list will help you either rule out or rule in favor of vibration as the issue you’re facing. Once identified, you can take a number of routes to figure out a solution, but diagnosing the problem is often the hardest part!

First things first.


Check with the machine operators.

Operators typically have the best sense of whether vibration is an issue. 

Diagnosis by elimination.

Rule out other possible causes by checking:

Does the machine need to be serviced?

Has the manufacturer looked at the machine to ensure it’s operating at the level it should be?

Check all internal machine sources for error.

Move to environmental sources.

Was there a temperature change in the factory? (item expands when hot, contracts when cold) 

Has there been a change in humidity?

Were any new vibration elements introduced?

A lot of times it depends what products the machines are running at the time. Some jobs run harder than others. Depending on the job the machine is performing -bending, size, amount of holes etc. can all have an effect on vibration conditions.
