Viberation Monitoring Market Trends & Dynamics
DRIVERS: Deployment of automation systems across various industries
Automation is among the most significant new technologies adopted in different industries, particularly in industries wherein processes and conditions are repeatable and predictable. These systems are gradually becoming highly flexible and intelligent, eliminating the requirement of close human supervision. They can offer optimal outcomes when a combination of sensors, actuators, microprocessors, and machine intelligence algorithms are used in these systems. Costs of various components used in automated systems have decreased in recent years, subsequently lowering the overall costs of these systems. Automation also reduces production costs and expenses on overall processes and increases the return on investments (Rol). This has resulted in the adoption of vibration monitoring systems by several small and mid-sized companies.
RESTRAINTS: Misconceptions regarding vibration monitoring system reliability and capability
Some operators rely on their instincts and experiences to judge the condition of machines, which is not always a reliable option. There may be instances where operators can overrule the analysis based on their personal experiences or due to a lack of trust in vibration monitoring technology's prediction capabilities. Experienced operators are sometimes skeptical about the diagnostics and predictions provided by vibration monitoring systems owing to mistakes made by these machines in the form of dropped metrics, service outages, and unreliable alerting signals.
OPPORTUNITIES: Rising interest in big data analytics and machine learning
The advent of machine learning, coupled with efficient big data analytics and a parallel processing framework, is transforming the vibration monitoring market. Big data analytics has accelerated the process of data analysis generated by condition monitoring systems owing to its capability of processing large data volumes. Machine learning carries out easy benchmarking of machine performance, enables transparency in data, and supports efficient collaboration among different processes of vibration monitoring systems. Big data-enabled vibration monitoring helps companies reduce overall asset ownership costs and improve business efficiency.
CHALLENGES: Shortage of experts ready to work at remote locations
Vibration monitoring systems are deployed by several companies to achieve operational excellence in their manufacturing processes by reducing equipment failures. It is a predictive maintenance strategy with the main objective of determining the current health condition of assets and predicting their future behavior to carry out maintenance at the most appropriate time. However, technical expertise is necessary for system optimization, software updates, system networking, data transmissions, and others, and it is becoming increasingly difficult to get experts who are ready to work in remote locations. As oil & gas production facilities and power generation plants are located in remote locations, the availability of experts at these locations is a challenge.

Market Definition
Vibration can be defined as a cyclic or periodic displacement of a machine from its static position due to its back and forth motion. This motion is mainly caused by the oscillation of various components of the machine, such as belts, gears, bearings, and drive motors. Vibration monitoring plays a critical role in plant operations because of its diverse applications on different types of critical machinery.
The vibration monitoring process includes periodical or continuous collection, analysis, interpretation, and diagnosis of data to determine the operational state and condition of machines for detecting potential failures before they turn into functional failures. This approach is different from traditional methods wherein the process of determining the condition of machines is manually controlled by the maintenance personnel. The technology is capable of detecting problems caused by misalignments and improper functioning of various sources such as bearings and gears. Vibration monitoring is widely implemented in most of the conventional rotating machinery such as pumps, motors, and turbines. It optimizes equipment readiness while reducing maintenance and staff requirements. This technique is widely used in chemical, oil & gas, aerospace & defense, power generation, automotive, heavy equipment, manufacturing, and other industries.
