Vibration characteristics of single-stage planetary gear transmissions

Condition monitoring based on vibration measurement and analysis of planetary gear transmissions has not provided the same good results observed in conventional fixed-shaft gear transmissions. One of the causes being the improper interpretation of the vibration spectrum. The structure of the lines p...

description Condition monitoring based on vibration measurement and analysis of planetary gear transmissions has not provided the same good results observed in conventional fixed-shaft gear transmissions.
