Machinery Vibration Analysis
Overview:
MVA provides in-depth discussions on time waveforms, FFT’s, phase and orbit analysis techniques for the evaluation of industrial machinery. This course is partial preparation for the Vibration Analyst Category III Certification Exam. It includes ten chapters covering:
Principles of Vibration; the physical nature of vibration, vibratory motion, degrees of freedom, measures & magnitudes, relationships of displacement, velocity and acceleration.
Data Acquisition Procedures; accelerometers, velocity sensors, proximity probes, encoders, signal conditioning, triggering and calibration.
Signal Processing; instrumentation, digital signal processing, resolution, dynamic range, demodulation, data displays.
Time Waveform Analysis; signal processing and presentation, phase measurement and analysis, harmonic relationships, and time waveform shape analysis.
Frequency and Phase Analysis; frequency analysis, beats, orders, nonsynchronous frequencies, resonance, sidebands, modulation and spectral shapes.
Orbit Analysis and Shaft Centerline Position; orbital construction, orbital timing, orbital analysis, centerline position, and case histories.
Machine Testing; concepts, mode shapes, shaker excitation, impact testing, damping, amplification and critical speed testing.
Balancing of Rotating Machinery; mass unbalance, force, single plane balancing, critical speeds, trial weights, pitfalls, one shot methodology, and four run method.
Condition Monitoring and Evaluation; machine knowledge, types of monitoring, route based, permanent monitoring, protection, screening and trending.
Machine, Components, and Potential Fault Frequencies; common or shared fault frequencies, fluid film bearings, rotors, rolling element bearings, gearboxes, motors, generators, pumps, fans, compressors, belt and roll frequencies.
There is a twelve-question multiple choice workshop supporting each chapter. The student will be provided 30 minutes for each workshop to test their knowledge and understanding of the material presented for that chapter. The instructor will then review the workshop with the class. The student’s time and understanding of the workshop materials will aid them in their preparation for the certification exam.
Course Materials: All registered attendees in the Machinery Vibrations Analysis course will receive the following printed materials:
MVA Training Manual
MVA Course PowerPoints
MVA Workbook
Certificate of Attendance
Calculator
Ruler, Triangles and Protractor
Course Agenda: The MVA course is 5 days in length (40 hours) beginning daily at 8:00 A.M. on Monday - Friday, ending at 5:00 P.M.
Optional CAT II Exam on Saturday 8:00 A.M. - 12:00 P.M.
A Vibration Analyst Category III Certification Exam will need to be scheduled outside of this training agenda. Typically, the Vibration Analyst Category III Certification Exam is scheduled for 4 hours on Saturday morning. (Course and Exam schedule are always subject to change based on scheduling or unforeseen circumstances.)
It is recommended that attendees review the Basic Machinery Vibration course materials and the Body of Knowledge found in ISO 18436-2 Annex A, which can be found at www.vi-institute.org under “Certification” before attending the Machinery Vibration Analysis course.
If you would like materials shipped to you in advance of the course, they will be shipped a week in advance and there will be a $100 expedited materials fee.
