Rotating Machinery Analysis in the Laboratory
BTFmesures offers OROS software solutions dedicated to the dynamic analysis of rotating machinery in laboratory environments. These tools enable the simultaneous acquisition of vibratory, acoustic, and phase signals to precisely study the behavior of engines, turbines, drive shafts, or compressors. With synchronized acquisition and in-depth analysis, this software facilitates early fault detection, performance optimization, and ensures equipment reliability under conditions close to industrial reality.
Order Analysis and Tracking
Order tracking is a key element in understanding the behavior of rotating machinery under variable operating conditions. OROS solutions synchronize tachometer and vibration signals, making it possible to clearly identify the contributions of specific orders in the vibration spectrum. This approach is particularly effective in laboratories for diagnosing imbalances, bearing faults, or resonance phenomena. It therefore enables optimization of machine performance throughout speed-up and coast-down phases.
Torsional Vibrations
Torsional vibrations, often overlooked, can significantly affect the lifespan and reliability of drive shafts. OROS software measures angular velocity fluctuations with high resolution, providing accurate detection of torsional phenomena. In testing environments, this analysis helps characterize transient behaviors, identify torsional resonances, and validate dynamic models. This directly contributes to the robustness and durability of the mechanical systems under study.
Rotor Balancing
Rotor balancing is essential for reducing vibrations and extending the lifespan of rotating components. The multiplane balancing modules offered by OROS provide an intuitive interface and real-time calculations, making it easy to perform balancing directly on a test bench or under real operating conditions. This feature quickly eliminates static and dynamic imbalances, improving user comfort and the overall performance of machines.
Vibration Analysis of Turbomachinery
Turbomachinery generates complex vibratory behaviors, especially at high frequencies and under variable operating conditions. OROS solutions provide advanced tools such as mode extraction, multi-sensor synchronization, orbital visualization, and modal mapping. In laboratory environments, these features allow precise characterization of the dynamic behavior of compressors, turbines, or pumps. This in-depth analysis helps validate design, ensure reliability, and prevent potential failures.
