30-Second Summary

  • Wear and tear, Unbalance, looseness and misalignment are the most commonly found vibration issues in machines.
  • Precision balancing and alignment practices will help minimise forces acting on a machine’s bearings and shaft seals, thereby resulting in improved reliability of these key component parts
  • Timely detection of vibration can help avoid downtime and enhance the lifespan of machines.
