Overview
The DATS Rotating Machinery option contains a complete set of tools for analyzing the sources of vibration and noise caused by cyclic forces such as those found in engines, gearboxes and wheel excitation.
Prosig acquisition software has additional realtime displays for use with Rotating Machinery Analysis.
The Time Sampled analysis enables a user to carry out classical Waterfall analysis, producing frequency spectra related to the speed of rotation. It includes comprehensive tacho conditioning software. The software allows waterfalls and orders to be visualized in many ways. Band-pass filtering and envelope analysis can be carried out for bearing analysis.
Various synchronous analyses can be used to view the data in the order domain. In particular a discrete Fourier transform (DFT) can be used to extract orders directly. Data which has been sampled using a fixed time sample rate can be resampled using the tacho as the synchronous marker, so that the same number of samples are generated for each cycle.

Measuring Transmission Error – Case Study
Transmission Error, also called Torsional Vibration, is the study of the rotational speed of a rotating object. A shaft will not normally rotate in a smooth motion, but will actually accelerate and decelerate as it moves around its cycle. The study of this phenomena is Torsional Vibration.
