Vibration Analysis (CM) Level I
Prepares attendees and provides evidence of qualification and competence to perform simple, single-channel machinery vibration condition monitoring and measurement. Recommended as an introduction to machinery vibrations.
Target students
Industrial/mechanical maintenance technicians or engineers involved in condition monitoring work. Basic knowledge/skills/experience on industrial rotating machinery maintenance is desirable.
Course content
- Measurement of vibration characteristics and trend assessment
- Physical and machine-technical bases of vibration
- Understanding good vibration measurement data
- Vibration measuring technology — sensors, instruments, software
- Measuring and interpreting overall values and bearing sounds
- Typical damage and how it shows in vibration behaviour
- Practice examples and practical presentations
- A look into level II vibration diagnosis
Package includes
- Practical exercises on a machine simulator, plus a final quiz
- Course material, refreshments and lunch
- Certificate of Completion by Fluke S.E.A.
Vibration Analysis (CM) Level II
Prepares attendees to perform machinery vibration analysis on industrial machinery using single-channel measurements, with or without trigger signals, following established procedures — including understanding and diagnosing different faults.
Target students
Industrial/mechanical maintenance technicians or engineers. Good knowledge and experience in industrial rotating machinery maintenance is required, and previous condition monitoring analysis experience is mandatory (CM level I or similar).
Course content
- Measurement of vibration signals and their interpretation
- Kinds of vibration and factors of influence
- Basic concepts of vibration diagnosis — time signal, amplitude spectrum, envelope spectrum, basic frequency, harmonics, side band, sensors, instruments, software
- Signature understanding and practical vibration diagnosis — imbalance, component resonance, faulty shaft alignment, electrical faults, gear mesh faults, belt vibration, roller bearing damage, hydraulic vibration, journal bearing issues
- Typical damage and how it shows in vibration behaviour
Package includes
- Practical exercises on a machine simulator, plus a final quiz
- Course material, refreshments and lunch
- Certificate of Completion by Fluke S.E.A.
Built for people who work on real machines
Every course is designed around the job, not the classroom.
No experience required
Most courses are open to anyone — just a basic interest in machinery is enough to get started.
Hands-on with real instruments
Train directly on PRUFTECHNIK and Fluke equipment — the same tools you'll use in the field.
Fluke-certified completion
Every course ends with a Certificate of Completion issued by Fluke S.E.A.
Small class sizes
Focused, personal instruction in every session — never a lecture hall of strangers.
