What is Motion Amplification (MA)?
A non-contact and video-based Vibration Analysis and Fault Visualization service that combines high speed cameras, patented vibration visualization technology, software processing algorithms, analysis and reporting. We process and analyze the vibration data, and videos are amplified to visually show you vibration faults.
How MA compares to Traditional Vibration Analysis?
Traditional vibration analysis using data collectors and single point accelerometers can narrow down a fault to an area, however with Motion Amplification we use the cameras 2.3 millions sensors to VISUALLY show you a fault down to a specific fault (loose anchor bolts, cracked mounting bases, misalignments, and many more other fault types).
MA Technical Capabilities:
-
Virtual Sensors: 2.3 million vibration measurements captured in one recording.
- Motion Amplification Factor: 1-500x
- Frequency Ranges: 0 to 650 Hz
-
Minimum Displacement: <0.01 mils at 3.3 ft with 50mm lens
-
Vibration Data Captured: FFT Spectra, Time Waveform, Orbit Plots
- 2D Measurements: Horizontal (X) and Vertical (Y) vibration measurements captured each in each recording.
- Frequency Filtering: We can filter frequencies of interest to display vibration faults in video.
- Motion Maps: Colorized maps convey the areas with most vibration.
- Phase Maps: Phase relationships between different components on a machine.
