Vibration-based Condition Monitoring (VCM) is generally used in industries to predict fault(s) at early stage in any machine so that the maintenance can be performed before any catastrophic failure. However the question always arises whether the VCM alone in a machine is enough? Answer is generally yes if the failure is not frequent and premature. But if the failure is premature and frequent then the experience shows that the routine VCM alone may not be sufficient. For such cases, it is observed that the dynamics of the complete machine unit comprises of the rotor, bearings and foundation is responsible for such premature and frequent failure. Hence additional tests and analysis are required to understand the machine dynamic behavior which can then leads to solution. The topic will discuss few industrial case studies to show the usefulness of valid approach.
