The list of questions in the topic
1. General aspects of monitoring and diagnostics.
Question 1.1. For a long time we work with your first generation system. From the presentations and publications of some specialists it follows that your companies have manufactured recently the third generation of rotating machinery monitoring and diagnostic systems by vibration. How it differs from the systems of the first and second generation?
(The question was asked by the representatives of the industrial enterprises of the Ministry of the Fuel and Power Industry.)
The question is answered by Alexej Barkov. 01.15.99
Question 1. 2. We have a small factory. Can you make an estimation whether we need a diagnostic system and will the cost of the system recoup itself.
(The question was asked by the participants of VAST seminar "Machine and Equipment Vibrodiagnostics". )
The question is answered by Yury Azovtsev. 01.18.99
Question 1.3. Why in your monitoring and diagnostic systems as a rule only the vibration signals are used?
(The question was asked by the representatives of auto repair shops of the Defense Ministry of Russian Federation.)
The question is answered by Alexej Barkov. 01.18.99
Question 1.4. Many diagnostic companies offer on-line and portable systems for machine vibration monitoring. They provide also the diagnostics. Does it differ from preventive vibration diagnostics and by what?
