MACH1NERY YIBRATION ANALYSIS

Dates:    October 9-12.1984

Place:    Houston, Texas

Dates:    November 27-30,1984

Płace:    Lisie, Illinois

Objective: In this four-day course on practical machinery vibration analysis, savings in production losses and equipment costs through yibration analysis and correction will be stressed. Techniques will be reviewed along with examples and case histories to illustrate their use. Demonstrations of measure-ment and analysis equipment will be conducted during the course. The course will include lectures on test equipment selection and use, vibration mea-surement and analysis including the latest Information on spectra! analysis, balancing, alignment, iso-lation and damping. Plant predictive maintenance programs, monitoring equipment and programs, and equipment eva!uation are topics included. Specific components and equipment covered in the lectures include gears, bearings (fluid film and antifriction), shafts, couplings. motors, turbines, engines. pumps, compressors, fluid drives, gearboxes, and słow-speed paper rolls.

MACHINERY YIBRATION ENGINEERING

Dates:    October 9-12.1984

Place:    Houston. Texas

Dates:    November 27-30.    1984

Place:    Lisie, Illinois

Objective: Techniques for the solution of machinery vibration problems will be discussed. These tech-niques are based on the knowledge of the dynamics of machinery; yibration measurement. computation, and analysis; and machinery characteristics. The techniques will be illustrated with case histories involving field and design problems. Familiarity with
