In the early days of condition monitoring (CM), vibration analysis and oil analysis were perceived as rival technologies, competing with one another for the same condition monitoring resources. Thankfully, time has brought about a paradigm shift in condition monitoring, with companies realizing the value in integrating complementary and effective technologies to better manage the health of specific machine types. In this case, oil analysis is a very complementary technology to vibration analysis which is typically the foundation for most CM…

Motion Amplification: A Powerful Addition to the CM Tool Box
At IVC Technologies, our analysts are some of the top minds in the condition monitoring (CM) industry. Yet, as smart and knowledgeable as they are, they’ll be the first ones to tell you that an analyst is only as good as the tools available to them. Certain machine conditions can be difficult and time-consuming to pinpoint using traditional CM technologies such as vibration analysis, phase analysis, and operating deflection shape (ODS) testing. However, by incorporating motion amplification into the mix,…
Remembering the Real Reason We Celebrate Memorial Day
Memorial Day is on Monday, May 27th this year. As you plan your “kick-off to summer” celebrations that will undoubtedly include backyard cookouts, swimming pools, and blockbuster movie premieres, be sure to include a moment to honor the people who made the ultimate sacrifice in service to our great country and for whom this holiday was created: our fallen veterans. Memorial Day – then and now Memorial Day was started three years after the Civil War ended, as a way…

Motion Amplification: Seeing is Believing
Imagine if you could visualize faults in machinery. Now you can! Motion amplification allows a vibration analyst to see minute amounts of machine movement that would ordinarily be invisible to the naked eye. Using Iris M, a revolutionary video-processing and software package developed by RDI Technologies, our analysts use a high speed, high definition camera to collect video data. The software and processing algorithms detect subtle motion and amplify it, essentially converting every pixel into an independent sensor, creating millions…

Your CBM Program Should Predict Better Than Phil
Poor Phil. According to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, the organization that has listed Groundhog Day predictions since 1988, only six of Punxsutawney Phil’s last 30 predictions were correct. That’s a 20 percent accuracy rate. Thankfully, Phil isn’t in charge of your condition monitoring program. Consequences of inefficiency and inaccuracy When it comes to machine assets, the consequences of inefficiency and inaccuracy (both in the quality of data and the interpretation of it) are far greater than another six…
