Acyclism measurements

At Vibratec, we are proud to put our expertise, equipment and experience at your disposal to solve your measurement problems on rotating elements such as shafts, crankshafts, transmission elements, alternators, etc. We are confident that our skills and state-of-the-art equipment will enable us to meet your needs for acyclism and instantaneous speed measurements.

We offer a full range of measurement services to meet your needs, from planning and carrying out tests to delivering detailed reports. Our team of experts is highly qualified to perform acyclism and instantaneous velocity measurements using a variety of measurement methods and techniques.

Acyclisms are phenomena inherent to reciprocating machines, where in most cases, a linear motion of several pistons is transformed into a rotational crankshaft motion. The direct consequence is a variation in angular velocity, angular position or angular acceleration.

Acyclisms generate+ vibro-acoustic phenomena that are detrimental both to user comfort and to the equipment subjected to them (accelerated ageing, altered performance or functional characteristics).

Acyclism measurement is an essential means of diagnosing potential causes of failure in rotating elements. Parameters such as speed, torque, fluctuations and angular variations can be measured to identify potential problems before they cause failure. The methods and techniques used to measure acyclism depend on the access, size and environment of the product to be tested. The use of instrumentation to measure acyclism is essential to ensure safe, reliable operation of equipment and reduce maintenance costs in industries such as aerospace, automotive, energy and power generation.
