Condition monitoring and fault diagnosis of machines are gaining importance in the industry because of the need to increase reliability and to decrease possible loss of production due to machine breakdown. By comparing the nitration signals of a machine running in normal and faulty conditions, detection of faults like mass unbalance, shaft misalignment and bearing defects is possible. This paper presents a novel approach for applying the fault diagnosis of rotating machinery. To detect multiple faults in rotating machinery, a feature selection method and support vector machine (SVM) based multi-class classifier are constructed and used in the faults diagnosis. The results in experiments prove that fault types can be diagnosed by the above method.

According to a research that is based on a previous study, But in a different way, This study shows fault diagnosis of Induction motor bearing which runs in coal-fired power plant industries on Desulfurization absorber agitator using Spectrum analysis of Stator Current and visual inspection. As a result of harmonic content analysis of stator current spectrum, It was possible to detect ball and outer race fault frequency. The comparison in the context of this experiment proves that the amplitude of faulty frequency is increased in three times at a fault in ball and in outer race. Spectrum analysis of stator current can be used to detect the presence of a fault condition as well as experiment in faulty bearings, besides early fault detection in bearings can prevent unexpected power generation loss and emergency maintenance cost.

Acoustic Emission technique is widely applied to develop the early fault detection system, and the problem about a signal processing method for AE signal is mainly focused on. In the signal processing method, envelope analysis is a useful method to evaluate the bearing problems and Wavelet transform is a powerful method to detect faults occurred on rotating machinery. However, exact method for AE signal is not developed yet. Therefore, in this paper two methods which are Hilbert transform and DET for feature extraction. In addition, we evaluate the classification performance with varying the parameter from 2 to 15 for feature selection DET, 0.01 to 1.0 for the RBF kernel function of SVR, and the proposed algorithm achieved 94% classification accuracy with the parameter of the RBF 0.08, 12 feature selection.

In this paper an experimental review of condition monitoring method using time domain vibration signals and statically measured wave forms of a multi-components damaged ball bearing is presented first time. Many investigators studied already about vibration characteristics of a single point damaged ball bearing but they did not make efforts to verify vibration phenomena of a multi-components damaged one. Even in case of a tripple components damaged (i.e, outer race, inner race and rolling element) one, the high frequency resonance technique (HERT) and the displacement time domain technique can be also used for its fault detection. According to experimental results undertaken a static displacement measuring method, the defect locations of components can be proposed confidently with simple calculation of the rotating angles of each component.

The signals that can be obtained from a rotating machine often convey the information of machine. For example, if the machine under investigation has faults, then we can measure the signal which has a pulse train, embedded in noise. Therefore the ability to detect the fault signal in noise determines the degree of diagnosis level of rotating machine. In this paper, minimum variance cepstrum (MV cepstrum), which can easily detect impulse in noise, has been applied to detect the type of faults of ball bearing system. To test the performance of this technique, experiment has been performed for ball bearing elements that have man made faults. Results show that minimum variance cepstrum can easily detect the periodicity due to faults.

This paper presents the approach involving fault detection and diagnosis of gears using pattern recognition and Wavelet transform. It describes result of the comparison between KDI (Kullback Discrimination Information) with the nearest neighbor classification rule as one of pattern recognition methods and Wavelet transform to know a way to detect and diagnosis of gear damages experimentally. To model the damages 1) Normal (no defect), 2) one tooth is worn out, 3) All teeth faces are worn out 4) One tooth is broken. The vibration sensor was attached on the bearing housing. This produced the total time history data that is 20 pieces of each condition. We chose the standard data and measure distance between standard and tested data. In Wavelet transform analysis method, the time series data of magnitude in specified frequency (rotary and mesh frequency) were earned. As a result, the monitoring system using Wavelet transform method and KDI with nearest neighbor classification rule successfully detected and classified the damages from the experimental data.

Most mechanical systems are now operating consistently and getting faster due to the development of automation systems. Peoples' dependence on machines have increased as when problems occur within the mechanical system, personal injury and production loss may come as a result, as most of the mechanical system's malfunctions are caused by the failure of the rotational bearing. What we need now is a maintenance system that can warn us when it detects abnormal conditions before significant damage occurs to the bearing. In this study, we have developed an acoustic emissions sensor that can figure if the bearing works under the normal condition. With this acoustic emissions sensor, we can inspect the bearing for defects by using the Heterodyne technique, which converts the ultrasound signal into audio, as a signal conditioning process.

The infrared thermography technology rather than traditional nondestructive methods has benefits with non-contact and non-destructive testings in measuring for the fault diagnosis of the rotating machine. In this work, condition monitoring measurements using this advantage of thermography were proposed. From this study, the novel approach for the damage detection of a rotating machine was conducted based on the spectrum analysis. As results, by adopting the ball bearing used in the rotating machine applied extensively, an spectrum analysis with thermal imaging experiment was performed. Also, as analysing the temperature characteristics obtained from the infrared thermography for in-situ rotating ball bearing under the lubrication condition, it was concluded that infrared thermography for condition monitoring in the rotating machine at real time could be utilized in many industrial fields.
