Troubleshooting of mechanical power transmission systems; When
a mechanical power transmission system fails or
does not perform properly, it is usually for one of the following
reasons:
- Excessive
loading - the system is simply
experiencing greater load than it was designed to handle.
- Misalignment -
the components of the system are not
properly physically aligned with each other.
- Inadequate
component mounting - this can lead to
movement of the components under load, resulting in misalignment.
- Inadequate,
improper, or contaminated lubrication.
- Unfavorable
environmental conditions such as
chemical or physical contaminants or extreme temperatures.
- Improper
maintenance procedures such as forcing
belts onto pulleys without first reducing center distance, or
installing bearings on shafts by pressing on the outer race.
- Defective
components.
Bay Machine Design is equipped to analyze, diagnose and specify
corrective actions for all of the above situations.
