Gears and bearings are important components of almost every machines used in industrial environment. Hence detection of defect in any of these must be detected in advance to avoid catastrophic failure. This paper aims to address the effect of bearing defect on gear vibration signature and effect gear defect on bearing vibration signature. Also its purpose is to make vibration analysis of single stage spur gear box, when both gear and bearing are defective. A condition monitoring set up is designed for analyzing the defect in outer race of bearing and damaged tooth of gear. MATLAB is used for feature extraction and neural network is used for diagnosis. In the literature, many authors have analyzed defects in bearings and gears separately. But it is found that the real situation may be more complex. The work presents a laboratory investigation carried out through an experimental set-up for the study of combined gear -bearing fault. This paper proposes a novel approach of damage detection in which defects in multiple components are analyzed using vibration signal.
Bearing is an important component of almost every mechanical system used in industrial environment. Hence the defect in bearing must be detected in advance to avoid catastrophic failure. This paper aims to diagnose the defect in bearing automatically using machine intelligence. A condition monitoring setup is designed for analyzing the defects in outer race, inner race and rolling element of bearing. MATLAB is used for feature extraction and neural network is used for diagnosis. It is found that the amplitude at defect frequencies may not always clearly indicate the increment; hence statistical analysis of bearing signature is a better alternative. The work presents an experimental investigation carried out on an experimental set-up for the study of bearing fault at same angular speed and load. This paper proposes an approach of damage detection in which defects in bearing are accurately analysed using vibration signal and neural network.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
