Possibility of import/export to/from many formats

VIBREXPERT has an open architecture in order to facilitate import/ export of data to other application software. Since twochannel data is supported, complex spectra, frequency response and coherence data can be exported to ME'SCOPE for Operational Deflection Shape or Modal Analysis. Expert systems such as FINE-TUNE™, a program designed by IMS for phase analysis, can easily link to VIBREXPERT. Many other formats, such as ASCII and EXCEL are also supported. Extra links are available for rapid access to other types of CM software (oil analysis, aerothermal performance, infrared thermography, ultrasound, acoustic emission or Barkhausen noise).

VIBREXPERT possesses many special analysis features to troubleshoot specific problems such as gear defects, magnetic defects on electric motors and generators, and surface defects on rolls. The graphic on the left show the dynamic profile of synchronous vibration on a 4-pole induction motor with an open-circuit fault on its stator. Many other kinds of defects can be detected with this technique, especially in the case of gears, where it is possible to simply identify local defects or defective tooth problems by visualising its profile.
