In recent years, machine vibration has become an important diagnostic tool in preventive maintenance for processing and production facilities. While some machines such as oscillating sanders use vibration to remove materials and finish surfaces, most industrial devices are engineered to operate smoothly and without vibration. The Fluke paper is addressed to those who work with machines that should not vibrate, such as electric motors, rotary pumps and compressors, and fans and blowers. In those cases, the presence of vibration can indicate problems or deterioration in the equipment. If the underlying causes are not corrected, the unwanted vibration itself can cause additional damage.
