Vibration Analysis
Unexpected equipment failures don’t just happen they build over time.
Vibration analysis allows you to detect issues early, understand what’s happening inside your equipment, and take action before small problems turn into costly downtime.
What is Vibration Analysis?
Vibration analysis is a predictive maintenance technique used to monitor the condition of rotating equipment.
By measuring vibration patterns, we can identify issues such as:
Bearing wear
Misalignment
Imbalance
Looseness
Mechanical defects
Why It Matters?
Without vibration analysis, you’re left reacting to:
- Unexpected breakdowns
- Production downtime
- Short-term fixes
- Higher maintenance costs
VS
With vibration analysis, you can:
- Catch problems earlier
- Plan Ahead
- Reduce Downtime
- Improve Performance
- Make Better Decisions
How We Collect Vibration Data
Route-Based Vibration Monitoring
We perform scheduled walk-around routes using handheld equipment.
Benefits:
- Regular equipment health checks
- Built-in visual inspections
- Ability to catch issues that are often overlooked
Online / Continuous Monitoring
We install permanent sensors that send data to the cloud.
How it works:
- Automated readings (daily or scheduled)
- Alarm-triggered additional readings
- Email alerts for issues
Benefits:
- Continuous monitoring
- Early warning
- Remote analysis
Customer-Collected Data (Remote Analysis)
We offer buy/lease options for your team to collect data while we analyze remotely.
Benefits:
- Flexibility
- Expert analysis
- Cost-effective
Class 1 Div 1 Capability
We provide vibration monitoring solutions for equipment located in Class I, Division 1 hazardous environments. Using intrinsically safe technology, we can collect critical vibration data in areas where flammable gases or vapors may be present helping facilities monitor equipment condition without sacrificing safety.
What Makes PMT Different
- We don’t just find problems we help fix them
- Clear, actionable results
- Fast, responsive support
- Real-world experience
