Condition Monitoring and Predictive Maintenance Services

Condition Monitoring and and Predictive Maintenance Services

Condition monitoring is a critical component of predictive maintenance for marine and industrial operations in demanding operating environments. Our machinery diagnostic services provide early detection of mechanical issues, helping operators avoid unexpected failures and expensive downtime.

Our testing and analysis services can detect:

Shaft and coupling misalignment
Misalignment of underwater running gear, including propeller struts
Propeller defects and pitch issues
Bent shafts
Unbalance of rotating components
Main engine misfire conditions

Main engine misfire conditions
Mechanical looseness
Rolling-element bearing deterioration
Gear wear and damage
Rubbing and interference
Structural or system resonance
Machinery soft-foot conditions

Testing and Analysis Services Across the World

Adding a vibration monitoring and predictive maintenance program helps maritime and industrial operators to protect critical assets while decreasing energy consumption, spare parts usage, and production losses.

AME's analysts are certified through industry-recognized programs and bring large-scale experience supporting commercial ships, shipyard operations, yachts and industrial facilities. AME is a recognized external specialist for Condition Monitoring by American Bureau of Shipping/ ABS.

Testing and analysis services include:

Machinery Vibration analysis
Ship Vibration Analysis
Motion Amplification
Advanced Diagnostics
Infrared Thermography
Remote Monitoring

Condition Monitoring Programs
Machinery Asset Management
Noise Surveys and Acoustic Monitoring
Torque Measurements
Oil Analysis

Advanced Diagnostics for Marine & Industrial Equipment

For complicated or recurring mechanical issues, AME offers state-of-the-art diagnostics that extend beyond traditional vibration analysis. These services are particularly valuable for shipyards, fleet operators, and industrial facilities.

Using tools such as Prüftechnik VibGuard, Binsfeld TorqueTrak, and DEWESoft, we identify underlying root causes affecting machinery reliability and performance.

Remote Monitoring

Remote monitoring allows mechanical operators to leverage vibration analysis capabilities without unnecessary travel costs. Data can be collected by on-site personnel or continuously through permanently mounted sensors and protectively transmitted to AME for expert analysis.

Remote monitoring detects:

Misalignment
Imbalance
Bent shafts

Mechanical looseness
Bearing and gear defects

Torque Measurements for Marine Propulsion Systems

Torque measurements help confirm proper propeller pitch and propulsion system efficiency. By comparing measured torque values to engine output, AME can identify propulsion, driveline or engine-related inefficiencies affecting performance. Using strain gauges and TorqueTrak technology, we measure shaft strain directly to ensure vessels.

Motion Amplification and Video ODS Analysis

Motion amplification uses high-speed RDI motion amplification cameras to visualize vibration behavior that is otherwise challenging to interpret. This technology is especially useful for detecting structural and foundation-related concerns common in marine and industrial installations.

Each pixel becomes a vibration sensor, allowing vibration patterns to be clearly recognized and diagnosed.
