Vibration-monitoring system builds on iPad capabilities
GTI Predictive Technology
The VibeRMS LT is an affordable condition-documentation solution for the iPad. This single-channel, vibration-documentation tool lets users view live vibration data (velocity, acceleration, displacement) and create reports at the site using an iPad (photo). Reports can be generated to describe machine data, spectrum data, alerts and alarms, user notes and integrated photos. The Machine Build function includes templates for common machine types (such as motors, pumps and fans), and gives users the ability to combine machine types to create machine-train templates. Such templates can be built onsite using a photograph of the machine. Measurement points are added by the user to complete the template. VibeRMS is designed to take advantage of the iPad’s inherent value-added functions, such as its camera, touchscreen capabilities and email access (to allow reports to be shared).— GTI Predictive Technology, Manchester, N.H.
