Measuring Motor Torque Vibrations

Measure torque and vibration, and analyze behavior during motor operation.
Discover resonance phenomena and other unpredicted frequency components by using FFT calculations to perform a frequency analysis.

Measurement Example

Record Torque and Vibration.

Perform Frequency Analysis Using FFT Calculations.

The MR6000/MR6000-01's FFT calculation functionality can be used to perform frequency analysis of torque and vibration signals. The MR6000/MR6000-01's FFT calculation functionality can analyze 8 phenomena simultaneous per measurement. By performing FFT analysis of signals input to different channels, it is possible to analyze frequency components occurring at the same time on different channels.

Equipment Used

MEMORY HiCORDER MR6000/MR6000-01

MEMORY HiCORDERMR6000/MR6000-01

The torque sensor* (strain gage-type converter) is connected to the Strain Unit U8969 to measure torque.
An acceleration sensor* affixed to the chassis, on which the motor is mounted, is connected to the Charge Unit U8979 to measure vibrations being transferred to the chassis.

* Torque sensor (strain gage-type converter)
(For more information about the sensor, please contact the sensor manufacturer.)
* Charge output type with built-in pre amp
(For more information about the sensor, please contact the sensor manufacturer.)
