Vibration and wear particles analysis in a test stand

Purpose - This paper aims to provide information on wear debris on oil and vibration analysis as predictive maintenance techniques. Design/methodology/ approach - The estate of a reducer is verified by analyzing the vibration and oil conditions of a test rig under some variables. Findings - According to the vibration and oil analysis it was found what was happening in the reducer without disassembling it. Originality/value - This paper gives information about two predictive maintenance techniques with a test rig. © Emerald Group Publishing Limited.
