Vibration Analyst

Roles & Responsibilities :

1. Vibration Data Acquisition & Analysis

   • Develop and implementvibration measurement methodologiesfor rotating and static equipment such as motors, pumps, turbines, and gearboxes.

   • Configure and calibratevibration sensors(accelerometers, MEMS, and piezoelectric) to ensure accurate data acquisition and reliable signal quality.

   • Performvibration spectrum and time-domain analysisto identify unbalance, misalignment, bearing wear, looseness, and resonance issues.

   • ApplyFull Spectrum Analysisto detect forward and backward whirl components, unbalance, misalignment, and fluid-induced instabilities in rotating machinery.

   • ConductOrbit and Centerline (CLD) Analysisto assess shaft dynamic behavior, journal bearing performance, and rotor stability during various operating conditions.

   • Possess working knowledge ofjournal bearing analysisandeddy current sensor-based measurementsfor monitoring shaft position and bearing clearances.

2. Signal Processing and Feature Extraction

   • Apply signal processing techniques such as FFT, envelope detection, wavelet transforms, and cepstrum analysis.

     

   • Extract relevant features for machine learning-based fault prediction models.

3. Diagnostics and Root Cause Analysis

   • Support diagnostic efforts for vibration-related issues in mechanical systems.

   • Provide insights to improve asset reliability and reduce unplanned downtime.

4. Collaboration and Reporting

   • Work with cross-functional teams (mechanical, data science, software, and IoT engineers) to enhance system accuracy.

   • Document test procedures, results, and diagnostic algorithms.

   • Present findings and recommendations to internal stakeholders and customers.
