DREAM

DREAM (Diagnostic Rolling Element Analysis Module) for Windows is a complete software system for condition monitoring, automatic condition diagnostics and condition prediction for rotating machines. DREAM for Windows is designed to work with a number of data collectors and is capable of working as a continuous monitoring and diagnostic system in it's on-line mode.

DREAM is used for:

• Automatic detection and identification of defects in rotating machines after machine installation or repair and during normal operation
• Long-term predictions of a machine's condition and forecasts of the minimum safe operation period of the machine
• Predictive maintenance planning
• Automatic detection and identification of incipient defects for periods of up to several months before dangerous situations develop and continued monitoring of the development of the defects
• Collection and storage of machine condition data for further processing and reporting
• Form and load route information and unload data from portable instruments
• Set up and control measurements for on-line measurement systems
• Collect and save the machine condition data for further processing and reporting
• Automatically process envelope and auto spectra, high frequency vibration levels, and detect and display the diagnostic parameters.

FEATURES

• DREAM is completely automatic and designed to be used, not only by experts in diagnostics, but also by mechanics with no special training as well
• According to the machine specifications, DREAM automatically defines what measurements to make
• To setup DREAM, enter the parameters of your machinery and not spectra measurements
• Automatic condition diagnostics and long-term condition prediction
• Issuing of recommendations for machinery maintenance based on actual machine conditions
• Advanced level of reliability for detailed condition diagnostics and life forecasts
• Condition diagnostics and prediction using a single vibration measurement for a number of different types of machine units including rolling element bearings
• The use of the full diagnostic information from narrow band vibration envelope spectra and autospectra which enables the detection of faults in the incipient stage of their development;
• The use of diagnostic methods that do not require changes in the machine operation mode for diagnostic purposes
• Flexible configuration capability for use with a variety of data collection and hardware systems
• Possibility of system adaptation to very complicated machine diagnostics such as aircraft jet engines with a large number of units in a limited space
• The system is built from of modules that enable flexible configurations and pricing
• State of the art user interface that enables you to see photo images of your machine including the transducer locations
