A common trap among many novice (and experienced) analysts is to over-simplify simulation models. While this unquestionably saves time, one runs the risk of producing inaccurate results. For example, representing generators, motors, rotors and so on as rigid mass components of a larger system is often an over-simplification. These and
6D brings decades of equipment/product field testing, troubleshooting, simulation and practical mechanical and structural engineering experience to every project. We’ve seen how products, equipment and structures react under all types of conditions in every environment and situation imaginable. Simply put, we bring a unique perspective to product development based on
Rotating equipment, with its multiple components and sub-assemblies, is subjected to varying vibrational forces. While certain levels of vibration are inherent to the normal operation of pumps, fans, gen-sets, and similar equipment – however, sometimes vibration levels become excessive. As vibration increases equipment and supporting structures are susceptible to cracks,
