SPM Instrument equipment
The best on the market for the analysis of rotating machines.
Both with portable devices and fixed systems
At Darkwave Thermo, we are technical partners and authorised distributors.
With Darkwave Thermo you can choose: rely on our service or provide it yourself.
As technical and commercial partners of SPM Instrument we can start the system and provide you with the service with periodic inspections.
For each machine and each measuring point we will prepare the most suitable measuring routines: on the bearings we will focus on SPM HD and HD ENV techniques with filter 4.
For gearboxes we will focus on HD ENV techniques and Acceleration measurement.
If necessary we can apply Time Synchronous Averaging analysis with signal intensification algorithms.
Later on, when you are satisfied and feel able to continue on your own, we will be able to support you throughout the transition period and in your training, until you are able, on your own, to continue with the analysis.
We will also choose the best instrumentation and configuration together.
If you already know what you need, we can study the best solution with you.
We chose SPM Instrument because it has always guaranteed us ergonomic instruments with “exceptional” performance and results.
We support each of our customers in the development of their predictive maintenance system, with the most advanced equipment on the market.
The first step towards Predictive Independence:
simple and effective instruments for vibration and bearing analysis
Predictive Independence brought to a maximum:
advanced and expert tools for 360° vibrational analysis
BearingChecker BC200/BC250
Bearing Analyzer – Let’s see how it works and how it is made.
Already at the end of the ’68 it was discovered that poorly lubricated and/or damaged bearings emitted mechanical waves inside the materials.
Therefore, being able to detect and measure these mechanical waves was the easiest and fastest way to diagnose the condition of the bearings. The mechanics already knew this: with a screwdriver or an iron rod resting on the ear and bearing seat, they could give their opinion.
Whether you call them “structure-borne” Ultrasound or Shock Pulse, we are talking about the same thing: acoustic waves in materials working at frequencies >30kHz.
SPM Instrument was born from the name given to these pulses: Shock Pulse Measurement.
VibChecker VC200/VC250
Vibration analyzer – Let’s see how it works and how it is made.
It allows a quick, easy and non-invasive check of the bearings directly in the field, for condition maintenance activities and verification of malfunctions.
When a machine vibrates, it deflects light in an imperceptibly variable way over time, depending on its frequency and type of movement.
Intellinova Parallel MB System
The fixed intelligent “entry-level” system for machine analysis.
A small system capable of analysing vibrations and shock pulses in detail, intervening with automatic alarms when the thresholds set for each symptom are exceeded.
Whether it is a bearing damage, a misalignment, an unbalance, a tower gear, the system is able to understand the cause of the anomaly and the increase in vibration or shock pulse values detected and to send a signal to the PLC or to the supervision system.
The Intellinova Parallel MB system applies the advanced SPM HD and HD ENV algorithms, designed to work on simple machines, even in stand-alone applications, providing the best of itself when coupled to DuoTech® sensors.
Leonova “Emerald”
The lightest advanced multifunction data logger with the incredible SPM HD and HD ENV techniques.
The Leonova “Emerald” is the ideal tool for use in harsh industrial environments and is recommended for inspection teams and Maintenance Engineers.
Lightweight, compact, it can handle a very large amount of data as well as providing a compact representation of FFT spectra and waveforms in small spaces.
Climbing ladders, in confined spaces, in industrial environments is no problem.
The Leonova “Emerald” uses the innovative SPM HD and HD ENV techniques for low and very low speed bearing measurements and enables order tracking and field balancing of rotors.
Leonova “Diamond”
Advanced multi-channel multi-function data logger: the most precise and early measurement techniques for bearings and gearboxes at low and ultra-low speed.
Leonova “Diamond Aligner”
Simple laser alignment within the reach of any technician or maintenance operator.
The Leonova “Diamond Aligner” is the simple and lightweight tool ideal for field alignments on horizontal and vertical machines.
Very light, compact, with bluetooth laser heads, it can align shafts up to 3 metres long.
There is of course the routine to analyse and correct the presence of “lame foot” in order to obtain the optimal conditions before performing the typical specific operations for good alignment.
The instrumentation also makes it possible to carry out thermal compensation, to take into account machinery with large temperature variations during operation.
It is very important to remember that even the best joint coupling is not able to reduce bearing loads when alignment is not carried out in the correct way: only precision alignment guarantees maximum life of the rotating parts.
