Rotating Machinery Vibration Signal Processing And Fault Diagnosis Based on LMD

There are abundant of fault information in rotating machinery vibration signal. On account of the nonlinearity and non-stationarity, the paper first does pre-process to the vibration signal using wavelet threshold denoising method and this method can bring a smooth signal. Then it decomposes the vibration signal using local mean decomposition(LMD), which is effective to the vibration signal. The LMD decomposes the signal into many PFs as the frequency from high to low. These PFs are composed of the production of envelop signal and pure frequency modulated signal. Finally, it takes most use of the kurtosis which is sensitive to the fault impact. By calculating the kurtosis of PF, it can assess the distribution of fault impact signal in every frequency band, consequently distinguishing the operating state of bearing and recognizing the fault mode according to the growth of turtosis. The experiment of actual bearing vibration signal demonstrates that the methods this paper proposed can effectively diagnose the vibration fault and has good performance
