In equipment diagnosis, correctly evaluating vibration strictly requires understanding three metrics: "Displacement," "Velocity," and "Acceleration," ...


Simply installing the latest IoT sensors is not enough to achieve successful predictive maintenance and equipment diagnosis. Many projects fail due to "fundamental design errors," such as selecting the wrong metric for the target anomaly or installing sensors in locations where vibration is not transmitted.
This category compiles practical knowledge for field engineers who are about to implement full-scale vibration monitoring. We explain the characteristics and proper use of the three vibration metrics: displacement, velocity, and acceleration. We also cover the "correct sensor installation direction (importance of 3-axis measurement)" to ensure you never miss the signs of an anomaly.
