The Agropolychim vibration diagnostic team employs Leonova Diamond portable analyzers for routine vibration data collection on critical machinery. The case study covers data between August 2018 and September 2020, with bearing fault frequencies aligning with BPFI and BPFIM symptoms emerging in March 2020. Four months later, these frequencies also appeared in the EVAM vibration assignment spectrum, hinting at possible stage 4 bearing damage. The decision to halt machinery for repairs depends on factors such as production dependencies and costs. To minimize financial losses, the plant opted for an unplanned stoppage on September 3rd, 2020, to replace the damaged gearbox.

The case highlights the HD ENV technology's capacity to accurately detect bearing damage. As a consequence of this case, the company upgraded its analyzers and software with the complete HD technology package. They also equipped the gearbox with shock pulse adapters for data collection with DuoTech accelerometers and quick connectors for optimal signal quality.
