Excess vibration destroys bearings, windings, and even the cases of motors. Not only that, the vibration can travel through the pipes, couplings, and other parts of the system to damage gearboxes, ...

The motor develops a vibration force of 0.063 oz (1.8 gm) when powered by a 3-Vdc source. Integral electronics means only two power leads exit the case. The motor achieves a speed of 13,500 rpm ...

Jet engine vibration is arguably the worst enemy of a typical aircraft maintenance team. Parts which are out of balance can eventually result in a cracked turbine, fan, and compressor components, as ...

This article was updated May 24, 2023. It was originally published Oct. 10, 2000. Noise and vibrations in power transmission devices—both those that use linear, reciprocating motion and rotational ...

A testing machine can be used to push, pull or twist a sample of the material in order to determine the mechanical properties of a material. Many materials are strain rate sensitive which means that ...

Vibration testing helps to predict how well a product will withstand its intended service or transportation environment. Some new vibration controllers have the capability to replicate data recorded ...
