1. Introduction
The purpose of this report is to analyze a gear system with the help of vibroacoustic
analysis, the measurements were made with the help of a piezoelectric vibration
transducer and there have been 4 different type of measurements based on the
state of the system:
Normal state
Defective gear state
Defective pinion state
Defective pinion and gear state
The analysis was made with the help of Matlab in which based on the initial
measurements we have generated different types of plots of the spectrum of the
signal, sceptrum of the signal, also we have generated the RMS, the maximum peak
to peak value and the maximum peak value.
Based on this data we have to analyze and indentify the elements which
describe the defectiveness of a certain part.
The analysis is based solely on comparison data between the different
defects compared to our baseline and between each other.
Our analysis data is from machine number4.
In order to complete this analysis we shall ad the plots for every single case of
defectiveness and draw our conclusion in the end.

3. Defective gear
As we can see the accelerations in this graph are around +7 and -40 which is
10 times higher then our baseline.

And as we can notice our maximum peak is 4 higher than the baseline and is drifted
in the approximate time of 0.01 seconds.

Figure 8. RMS, Peak to Peak and Peak values for defective gear.
Here we can also see that all of our measured values are much greater than our
baseline.

4. Defective pinion
Here we can observe that although we don't have so high peaks we have much
more of them then in the case of the defective gear an much more than our
baseline.
11
Nilgesz Arnold
Here we can observe to higher peaks in the lower end of the spectrum different
from our gear defect and also different from our baseline.
12
Nilgesz Arnold
The cepstrum here has a 3 times higher peak then our baseline which appears
faster than in our gearbox defect at aroound 0.005 seconds.

And of course our values are still higher than our baseline but not as high as the
gear defect.

As we can see there are 3 major peaks in the graph and we can
observe the higher end of the spectrum being a bit taller as well. which
indicates our double defects.

Figure 16. RMS, Peak to Peak and Peak values for defective pinion and gear.
And as we can se our measured values are the highest from all cases
indicating major failure of both elements.

So as we can see from our graph all of our measured variables follow the same law
based on the type of defect we have:
Defective gear - is higher then baseline and defective pinion but smaller then
defective pinion and gear.
Defective pinion is higher than our baseline but smaller than all other defects.
defective pinion and gear have the highest values far above all the other
cases.
Also we can make an approximate observation in the case of peak to peak values
and peak values:
19
Nilgesz Arnold
Peak to Peak values in the defective gear case are 10 bigger then baseline, in
the defective pinion 5 times and 200 bigger in the case of defective gear and
pinion.
For peak values in the defective gear case 510 times bigger the baseline,
defective Pinion 5 times bigger and in the defective pinion and gear case 20
times bigger.
