COURSE INFORMATION
COURSE CODE : BDC 4013
COURSE NAME : NOISE AND VIBRATION
EXPERIMENT : GEAR MESH AND BELT SPECTRUM
1.
INTRODUCTION
Successful diagnostics and troubleshooting of rotating machinery require an accurate and
repeatable quality data collection. The understanding of machinery design and operating
dynamics is vital to accurately interpret typical fault pattern and symptoms.
There are various problems with gear meshing and belt drive. These include part worn, loose,
mismatch and eccentricity.
The defect can be highlighted through frequency patterns resulted from data measurement.
Normally the defect can be identified by high amplitudes at timing frequency
2.
OBJECTIVES
The objective of this experiment is to determine the gear mesh and belt frequency in rotating
machine.
3.
LEARNING OUTCOMES
At the end of this experiment, the student would be able to
a. Differentiate the vibration characteristics of belt and gear mesh,
b. Obtain the resonance frequency of gear mesh and belt

THEORY
Normal Gear Spectrum
A normal spectrum shows 1x and 2x RPM. Along with gear mesh frequency (Fg). Fg commonly
will have running speed sidebands. All peaks are of low amplitude. A typical pattern is shown in
Figure 1.
Worn, Loose and Mismatched Belts Spectrum.
Belt frequencies are below the RPM of either the motor or the driven machine. When they are
worn, loose or mismatched, they normally induce 3 to 4 multiples of belt pass frequency (F x PI x
D/L), 2 x belt frequencies is often the predominant peak. A typical pattern of loose belt is depicted
in Figure 2.
5.
APPARATUS
A specific experimental test bench and portable measurement tool (vibration analyser) with
accelerometer is used for this experiment.
