Failure in external bearing track 22326 with 15 rolling elements is observed in vibration and waveform spectra, particularly in the circular waveform with 6 impacts corresponding to the number of rolling elements passing through the defect per revolution.
Failure in external bearing track 22326 with 15 rolling elements.
The clear fault is observed in the vibration, waveform, autocorrelated waveform and circular waveform spectra. It is more clearly identified in the circular waveform 6 impacts that correspond to the number of rolling elements that pass through the defect in one revolution, according to the literature of the analysis of failure in bearings, approximately 40% of the rolling elements pass in the outer track and 60% in the inner track per revolution. In this case study it corresponds to 6 rolling elements since the bearing has 15 total elements and the fault is in the external race.
