Interview With an Expert Vibration Analyst: 4 Stages of Bearing Failure

In this Video Paul Walks us through the progression of a bearing failure, what is happening structurally to the bearing and what our vibration spectrum is showing us.

Thanks sir to shear this knowledge! following you from Iraq

[@Stubbornnut]

very happy to have you watching. i hope you gain something from the videos! all the best 😃

[@ZiaUllah7]

Very helpful

[@Stubbornnut]

thank you for the positive feedback and for watching my videos. i appreciate it.

[@JLPaper7]

Could you indicate how it translates to the machine of analysis? How is the difference between envolepe and acceleration in this case? What happens if you see it in velocity, is that stage 4?

[@Stubbornnut]

all early stages of bearing failure discussed here are using peak view to identify early faults. as the spike moves to lower frequency in stages 3 and 4 you will see it in velocity. you have to set your box to look for these during your route.

i have an entire video playlist that explains the acceleration and velocity vs amplitude and where you use them.
