Abstract

Intelligent fault diagnosis methods based on signal analysis have been widely used for bearing fault diagnosis. These methods use a pre-determined transformation (such as empirical mode decomposition, fast Fourier transform, discrete wavelet transform) to convert time-series signals into frequency domain signals, the performance of dignostic system is significantly rely on the extracted features. However, extracting signal characteristic is fairly time consuming and depends on specialized signal processing knowledge. Although some studies have developed highly accurate algorithms, the diagnostic results rely heavily on large data sets and unreliable human analysis. This study proposes an automatic feature learning neural network that utilizes raw vibration signals as inputs, and uses two convolutional neural networks with different kernel sizes to automatically extract different frequency signal characteristics from raw data. Then long short-term memory was used to identify the fault type according to learned features. The data is down-sampled before inputting into the network, greatly reducing the number of parameters. The experiment shows that the proposed method can not only achieve 98.46% average accuracy, exceeding some state-of-the-art intelligent algorithms based on prior knowledge and having better performance in noisy environments.
