VIBRATION ANALYSIS (VCAT III)
ADVANCED COURSE AND MOBIUS INSTITUTE CERTIFICATION
The ISO 18436 VA CAT-III course is for people who are confident with spectrum analysis but who wish to push on and learn more about signal processing, time waveform and phase analysis, cross-channel testing, machine dynamics, and fault correction.DESCRIPTION:
Students will come away from this course with a very good understanding of vibration analysis fundamentals, you will understand how to take good measurements, and you will be ready to begin analysing vibration spectra, especially:- How to select the correct measurement location and axis, and collect good, repeatable measurements
- What the Fmax, resolution, averaging and other single channel and cross-channel analyser settings mean, and how to select the optimum settings
- How to analyse vibration spectra, time waveform, envelope, and phase measurements
- How to diagnose a wide range of fault conditions
- How mass, stiffness & damping affects the natural frequency of a structure
- How to use phase readings, bump tests, impact tests, negative averaging, peak-hold averaging, transient, ODS, modal analysis to determine natural frequencies and visualize machine movement
- How to balance and align a machine, correct a resonance conditions, and employ isolation
DURATION:
• Public/Private – 5-day course including review and exam • Online – set of training videos 38 hours, additional time for online examFORMAT:
