Driving with a missing or faulty wheel bearing is hazardous. It is recommended that if your vehicle experiences any of the symptoms of a worn bearing, you have a trusted technician inspect the wheel assembly. If wheel bearings come loose or detach from the vehicle, it can create a very dangerous situation on the road. Wheel bearings play a vital role in keeping the wheel attached to your vehicle. Without wheel bearings, your wheel is essentially unattached. This can be very dangerous, especially while traveling on highways at high speeds. Losing a wheel could result in loss of control of your vehicle, putting yourself and other drivers in harm’s way.

Why Failure Analysis? How do you avoid bearing failures to happen again? What is it that most affects the image of. Maintenance?

IOLITE-2xASI: data acquisition device with two vibration input channels (with 40 kS/s sampling speed per channel) for interfacing with two ASI-1xVIB-50g vibration probes and one digital input channel for connecting an RPM sensor (tacho).

Using condition monitoring techniques is the only way to understand the condition of your machines in detail and to be able to perform the right maintenance at the right time.

Orbit analysis is a necessary tool for vibration analysis of rotating machinery. The process is essentially an extension of time waveform analysis plotting time-domain data from a pair of orthogonal probes on an orbit graph with consideration for the physical location of the proximity probes.

After performing for thousands of miles, it is common for wheel bearings to wear out. The perpetual revolution of the wheels combined with the weight of the vehicle eventually leads to worn wheel bearings, making them unable to let the wheels roll effectively. In the past, wheel bearings could be repacked as they were more accessible. However, modern vehicles are equipped with sealed units to keep debris, dust, and moisture at bay. Sealed units last longer as they are able to prevent contamination and reduce premature wear. However, because they are one collective piece, they cannot be serviced, cleaned, or greased. Once the assembly is worn, the entire rear wheel or front wheel bearing requires replacement, often along with the hub, as well.

Data transfer from Dewesoft to SCADA is straightforward by using the Dewesoft OPC UA Server or Client modules. In this case, Dewesoft software acts as a SCADA server or client, depending on the requirements set by the customer.

InfluxDB database provides a well-documented open API that is easy to implement and enables historical data access, typically for integration into machine learning software.

Dewesoft’s software includes a comprehensive bearing database that contains a wide range of bearing models, making it easy to analyze specific bearings. The database is fully customizable, allowing users to add new bearings as needed, ensuring flexibility for different applications.

Teflon (PTFE) is known for the non-reactive and non-ageing properties which can withstand temperatures from –240°C to +260°C.

Calculations on raw data are performed on measurement units running DewesoftX software offering thousands of features including:

Dewesoft DAQ devices are designed to be distributed under any condition. EtherCAT technology allows devices to be placed near the sensors and connected with a single cable for power, data, and synchronization. The cable can span up to 100m between DAQ nodes or virtually unlimited using EtherCAT to fiber optic converters.

Raw and reduced data: while raw data is always stored in the measurement unit for an in-depth analysis, the Historian takes the role of long-term reduced data storage in the cloud database.

This cost-effective solution enables production facility owners to start permanent monitoring of critical equipment with high ROI. Ultimately, it helps reduce production downtime, lowers maintenance and repair costs, and increases company profitability.

Your vehicle has many components that rub together and create an incredible amount of friction. As you know, when there’s friction, there’s heat. Lubricants help reduce friction and cool components and extend their life. A bearing, be it wheel or any other is used to reduce friction. Without the wheel bearing in your car, the wheel would likely slide as opposed to roll. When wheel bearings begin to breakdown and fail to roll, drivers may notice significant differences as they drive. Get to know what the wheel bearing is, its purpose, and what the symptoms of a bad front or rear wheel bearing are.

The software offers a very simple way to display and visualize acceleration, velocity, and displacement waveform, and spectrum plots, all in real time.

Measure and monitor vibration, and temperature with the greatest possible precision and get the right results. Highly integrated hardware and software that just works out of the box.

Machine condition monitoring (or condition-based monitoring - CBM) is the process of monitoring conditions in critical machinery while in operation (vibration, temperature, etc.), in order to identify a significant change that is indicative of a developing fault or malfunction. It is a major component of predictive maintenance.

IOLITE is our family of measurement devices with single- or multi-channel general data acquisition with a wide range of input types with 24-bit resolution and 20 kS/s sampling speed.

The solution is designed for applications where distributed measurements of limitless numbers of perfectly synchronized vibration and temperature measurements are of the essence and where cost plays a significant role. Fast and easy mounting of devices is facilitated by using RJ45 connectors. The solution is bringing the DAQ device very close to the sensor eliminating long analog cables and thus reducing noise pick-up and cost.

The extracted channel can be converted into the frequency domain and subtracted from the original spectrum. This allows the user to remove frequency bands specific to a certain machine part from the spectrum and analyze only the remainder of the spectrum in a separate channel.

Each wheel is equipped with a wheel bearing, a set of steel balls or rollers held by a cage in a ring of metal called a “race.” As the wheels spin, they create friction and heat. Wheel bearings help to reduce the friction, heat and protect the wheels and tires. The wheel bearing lies inside of the hub assembly. The hub is what holds the lug nuts that are used to secure the tires to the wheels. Hubs are made to support the weight of the vehicle, travel over all kinds of road conditions, turn corners while facilitating the wheels as they spin at many revolutions per minute.
