Abstract

Vibration monitoring is necessary for any system for its effective performance, product quality, safety and life span. It helps to diagnose the health of system for any predictive maintenance needed. This paper presents the analysis of vibration signal using fast Fourier transform (FFT). Frequency spectrum of vibrating source gives information of the vibration level. The natural frequency of the vibrating source was found to be 17 Hz with total harmonic distortion (THD) of 0.000177%. The analysis was carried out using NI LabVIEW software.
