The Purpose of Vibration Analysis in San Antonio

by | Jun 2, 2016 | Industrial Goods & Services

Vibration Analysis in San Antonio is a test that determines the accuracy of calibrations in sensitive machinery. When machinery becomes misaligned the calibrations may be off due to a number of reasons. Thermal effects of the machinery itself, constant vibrations, poor foundations, rebuilding machinery for new purposes, accidents, and moving machinery from one place to another are just a few examples. Traditional methods, tools, and equipment used to complete vibration analysis testing, reconfigure alignments, and to repair machinery take days to finish the task. The latest technology allows those processes to take only hours, depending on the machinery and how many machines are in the factory.

Rotary or machine tool precision equipment that is not calibrated correctly can cost the business a lot of time and money. Time is lost in downtime for repairs, remaking rejected pieces that do not meet specifications, and days spent diagnosing problems and getting precise calibrations set with traditional tools and equipment.

Money is lost paying for frequent repairs, paying machine operators to wait for machinery to be operational, supplying raw materials to make replacement pieces for the rejected ones, and prematurely purchasing new machines because the previous ones wore down quickly. Money is also lost by paying higher utility bills caused by struggling machinery.

Factory trained and certified technicians utilize the newest equipment and procedures to perform Vibration Analysis in San Antonio, make any repairs needed, and correct the alignment of machinery. Decreasing downtime, costly repairs, operating costs, and rejected pieces are the benefits of machinery that can be tested more often and maintained to operate a full capacity.

Hamar Laser Alignment systems are used for machinery geometry, as well as spindle, roll, bore, and coupling alignments. Renishaw Laser Interferometers are used for machine tool installation, diagnostics and error corrections, turbine and extruder alignment, and to process mill and printing presses. Business owners and managers can Contact Us for information on testing, repairs, services, alignments, and maintenance.

Manufacturing plants across industries have been able to increase productivity, have machinery tested and corrected more often, and prolong the life of current machinery in less time than it used to take. It is no longer necessary to wait until the factory closed down for an annual break to have machinery producing the highest quality pieces.
