Abstract:
An adaptive approach was applied for local tooth damage diagnostics in
gearboxes. The expediency of adaptation was proved experimentally for the new
diagnostic feature, the sum of normalized sideband amplitudes. The positive
correlation between mesh amplitudes and their sideband amplitudes was found
experimentally for the first time. Novel adaptive vibration condition monitoring
technology for local tooth damage in gearboxes was developed and experimentally
validated. The experimental results showed an increase in effectiveness of the
diagnostics when the adaptive technology was used.
