🔍 Key Concepts

• Vibration directions in rotating machinery (vertical, horizontal, axial) • How bearing housings and foundations move under load • Why comparative vibration data needs to capture the full motion pattern of the machine

💭 Think About

• Think about all the possible directions a rotating shaft and its bearings can vibrate relative to the foundation. Which directions are most important to detect misalignment, unbalance, and looseness? • If you only measure in one or two directions, what types of faults or motions might you miss? • For a complete condition comparison over time, do you want the minimum number of readings or the most representative set of directions?

✅ Before You Answer

• List the three basic measurement directions: vertical, horizontal, axial and think what each one detects best. • Consider which choices use only two directions versus all three, and what that means for diagnostic coverage. • Ask yourself: for critical rotating machinery, would standard practice favor fewer readings for simplicity, or more directions for more reliable trending of condition?
