Bearing Inspection with Ultrasound
One of the main reasons for bearing damage is insufficient lubrication, which leads to increased friction in the bearing. As a result, the acoustic emission increases. Under-lubrication, as well as potential over-lubrication, can be quickly detected with our ultrasonic inspection devices. Additionally, improper use, intrusion of foreign materials, and excessive heat generation are other reasons for damage to roller and ball bearings. These changes in condition can also be detected with ultrasound. Ultrasound helps to ensure that your bearings achieve their intended service life through proper monitoring and maintenance.
Ultrasound is the most suitable technology for this purpose
Ultrasound will enable you to detect damages at the earliest possible stage compared to other technologies. This is due to the fact that the acoustics in bearings are the first parameter which will change. Vibrations, noises that can be noticed by humans, and heat development only occur in advanced stages of damage. At this point, the bearing is already showing signs of damage and may need to be replaced quickly to avoid downtime.
Ultrasound offers a great advantage in that it can be used throughout all bearing rotational speeds. Even with extremely slow-running bearings, ultrasound has been able to help customers inspect their bearings and find faults in the earliest of stages.
