Industrial Gearbox Diagnostics

Industrial Gearbox Diagnostics

Reliable operation of industrial gearboxes is critical for production continuity. We offer professional diagnostics based on vibration and temperature measurement – for early fault detection, reduced unplanned downtime and extended equipment service life.

 

What We Diagnose

• ✔  Industrial gearboxes (spur, bevel, planetary, worm)
• ✔  Bearings and gearing
• ✔  Shafts and bearing arrangements
• ✔  Lubrication systems
• ✔  Associated rotating machinery

Vibration Diagnostics

Vibration analysis is the most effective method for monitoring the technical condition of gearboxes during operation.

We can detect:

Fault

Example

Gear damage

pitting, tooth breakage

Bearing defects

fatigue damage, wear

Imbalance and misalignment

vibration, impacts

Structural looseness

abnormal oscillation

Inadequate lubrication

increased friction, overheating

 

Advantages of vibration diagnostics:

• ✔  Measurement during full operation – no shutdown required
• ✔  Early problem identification
• ✔  Ability to plan maintenance in advance
• ✔  Reduced service costs

Thermal Diagnostics

Temperature measurement complements vibration analysis and enables rapid identification of abnormal operation.

We monitor:

• ✔  Gearbox overheating
• ✔  Bearing condition and friction losses
• ✔  Lubrication problems
• ✔  Local thermal anomalies

Diagnostic Outputs

Every measurement concludes with a clear technical report containing:

• ✔  Description of the current gearbox condition
• ✔  Evaluation of measured values
• ✔  Fault identification
• ✔  Recommended next steps (monitoring / repair / shutdown)
• ✔  Preventive measures proposal

Customer Benefits

• ✔  Reduced risk of failure and unplanned downtime
• ✔  Extended gearbox service life
• ✔  Optimised maintenance planning
• ✔  Lower service and operating costs
• ✔  Increased overall operational reliability

Regular Monitoring

We also offer long-term regular gearbox monitoring, enabling trend tracking, predictive maintenance and minimisation of unplanned shutdowns.
