How do piezoelectric accelerometers — vibration sensors — work? The force caused by vibration or a change in motion (acceleration) causes the sensor's mass to “squeeze” contained piezoelectric ...

Designed for use in monitoring rotating machinery vibration, the Model 602C01 industrial accelerometer boasts of a small size and through-hole mounting, making installation of the sensor possible in ...

Aiming at vibration-based equipment condition monitoring, Analog Devices has introduced a kit for hardware, software and algorithm development that will interface with data analysis tools including ...

Nothing runs as smooth as a new machine. After time, as components wear, the hum of productivity becomes the whine of a tired collection of loose fitting parts beating out of unison. This condition is ...

To sense shock, vibration, and/or linear motion, accelerometers are beginning to appear in a broad range of new applications. Common types of accelerometers for these applications�various ...

An accelerometer-based active vibration-control system for CNC machine tools is designed to improve machining productivity by maximizing material removal rate (MRR), with the result that tool-head ...

Quantifying the vibration of industrial machinery and using that information for condition monitoring (CM) has long been an ambitious goal, but also one with significant technical and implementation ...
