Striking the Right Chord: Bump testing in machinery diagnostics

Striking the Right Chord: Bump testing in machinery diagnostics Resonance frequencies play a crucial role in the health of rotating machines. While bump testing and impact testing share a similar concept, they differ in their approach. Bump testing focuses on only identifying resonance frequencies by exciting multiple frequencies simultaneously, whereas impact testing is commonly used […]
Unlocking Motor Insights

Unlocking Motor Insights Today, we’d like to discuss how you can perform a comprehensive measurement using Electrical Signature Analysis (ESA) for your motor analysis. This technique allows us to gather crucial insights by measuring both the three-phase current and voltages. To measure the current accurately, you have several options e.g. current transformers, current clamps, or […]
