Abstract
In the present work, a test rig resembling to the section of the turbo blower motor assembly used in heavy manufacturing
industries is developed. The purpose is to reveal significant increase in a machine's vibration level to warn about the developing
problems due to the deteriorating health of bearings which can be easily identified using condition based monitoring. Vibration
spectrum analysis, a predominant CBM technique is used in this study because vibration signature reveals a lot of important
information about the fault generation within them. This paper discusses vibration severity causing potential failures in turbo
blower thus applying condition monitoring to avoid premature failure thus, improving productivity.
