- Abstract:
- In many industrial situations, bearing failure can lead to serious consequence on the overall process. A bearing’s fault progressive character raises the question of finding the right moment to perform replacement at the cost of stopping the machine. The study done in this paper deals with mathe- matical modeling of the bearing’s rolling element with a local defect on its fixed outer ring, based on a mass-spring-damper archetype system. A simulation of the vibratory behavior is performed, and its impact on ball-defect coincidences during shaft rotation under different working conditions is analyzed. The paper suggests applying advanced pre-processing tech- niques such as Singular Spectrum Analysis (SSA) and Envelope Analysis (EA) before extracting statistical indicators. Some well- known time-domain indicators such as the Root Mean Square (RMS), kurtosis, and Energy around Ball Pass Frequency Outer- ring (EBPFO) are used on the raw and processed signals to highlight the defect evolution. The results carried out show that, applying the EA with SSA on the raw time-series signal at the pre-processing level, before statistical analysis can significantly improve the detection, thus an excellent diagnosis to incipient defects in bearings.
