Vibration Analysis

At BES Group Asset Reliability, we provide advanced vibration analysis services to help you effectively monitor the condition of your industrial equipment. Vibration analysis is a powerful tool that allows us to detect early signs of machinery defects, diagnose underlying issues, and implement targeted maintenance strategies. With our expertise and state-of-the-art equipment, we can help you optimise equipment performance, prevent unexpected failures, and improve overall operational efficiency.

Vibration analysis is a key component of a condition monitoring programme and is most commonly used to detect faults, such as unbalance, misalignment, rolling element bearing faults and resonance conditions in rotating machines like fans, motors, pumps and gearboxes etc. Vibration data can be collected using handheld data collectors, permanently fixed online monitoring systems for real-time monitoring or via wireless vibration and temperature sensors.

Vibration analysis offers several key benefits when it comes to the condition monitoring of your equipment:

• Proven Service: We provide vibration analysis services across all major sectors and industries, national maintenance companies and OEM’s.
• Experienced Engineers: Our team of specialist engineers are the leaders in the field of vibration analysis with the qualifications, skills, and expertise to show for it. All our engineers and technicians hold the necessary, “in-date” certifications and accreditations, that shows our commitment to maintaining the highest industry standards.
• Global Reach: We carry out vibration data collection throughout the UK, overseas and offshore.

Our vibration analysis services cover a comprehensive range of equipment and industry sectors:

• Vibration Data Collection: Our skilled reliability engineers use specialised sensors and data acquisition equipment to collect vibration data from your machinery. We ensure precise measurements and capture data from various critical points on the equipment.
• Data Analysis and Interpretation: Our Remote Diagnostics Team utilises advanced software and analytical tools to analyse the collected data. We assess vibration frequencies, amplitudes, waveforms, and other parameters to identify potential defects or abnormalities accurately.
• Fault Diagnosis and Reporting: Through detailed analysis, we diagnose the root causes of vibration anomalies and generate comprehensive reports. Our reports provide actionable recommendations, enabling you to prioritise and plan maintenance activities effectively.
• Long-term Trend Monitoring: We offer ongoing vibration monitoring services to track equipment performance trends over time. By comparing current data with historical records, we identify any deviations, enabling proactive maintenance and early detection of potential issues.

• Audits: We will assess your plant and give recommendations and requirements.
• Commissioning: We can provide a full vibration monitoring report prior to plant handover and acceptance.
• Vibration Monitoring Service: We can carry out routine data collection, analysis and reporting for you.
• Remote Vibration Analysis: You collect the data, and we will analyse it and report back our findings.
• Troubleshooting: We can offer diagnosis and analysis of machine vibration problems with reporting and recommendations.
• In-House Systems: We can assist you in the best way to setup and maintain your own in-house vibration monitoring program.
• System and CBM Programme Set Up: If you have existing or new systems or technologies we can assess its capabilities, ensure the correct application, setup and commission, place recommendations for integration of data and systems and train personnel in its use.  Where gaps are identified, we can then assist with the solution to plug those gaps.
• In-Situ Balancing: We can balance machinery in-situ without major disruption to operations.
• Seismic Monitoring: We can monitor for undesirable or excessive vibration during demolition/ construction etc.
• HAVs Tool Inspections: We test your hand tools and report back on safe usage durations for your employees.
