MS719 · Electromechanical Vibrations

Electromechanical vibrations experiment — interaction of electromagnetic and mechanical systems in an asynchronous motor

Experiments
  • Influence of the stator–rotor gap on vibration behaviour — adjustable asymmetry up to 0.2 mm
  • Influence of electromagnetic asymmetry (winding that can be switched off) on vibration behaviour
  • Influence of mechanical load on the vibration level (with MS705)
  • Influence of the gap on electromagnetic losses and motor efficiency
  • Influence of speed on the vibration behaviour of the motor
  • Measurement of current consumption per phase (with a current probe — not included)
  • Interpretation of frequency spectra — separating rotational (n, 2n) from electromagnetic (2fe, 4fe) contributions
  • Works together with the MS700 base unit
MS719
Description
    Asynchronous motors are the most common drive in industry, and their vibration spectrum mixes purely mechanical contributions with those originating from the magnetic field. The MS719 experiment isolates these effects: an adjustable centring device introduces a controlled asymmetry in the stator–rotor gap, while a switchable winding introduces electromagnetic asymmetry. Loaded via the MS705 brake, the motor reveals how each imperfection maps to its own lines in the spectrum.
