Abstract

This article discusses the design of a rotating machine vibration monitoring system in real time by utilizing a 3-axis accelerometer MEMS sensor. The system consists of 2 main parts, namely, vibration data acquisition system and data analyse system with the principle of wireless data communication. The results of vibration measurements from each three MEMS accelerometer sensors will be forwarded by the Arduino Nano microcontroller to the data collection device, the Arduino Uno microcontroller. Also, the machine rotating speed data acquired by the TCRT5000 speed sensor will be forwarded by the Arduino Pro Mini microcontroller to the same collection device. Data that has been recorded by the collection device is then transmitted to the computer through wireless communication using the Node-MCU device. The Lab View software is used as a machine vibration data display that has previously been processed by the computer in accordance with parameters desired by the user. Testing stability of data transmission with a certain length of time and communication distance is carried out to ensure the measurement results are in accordance with the real-time vibration conditions. Test results show an average delay time of below 200ms for the farthest distance from the wireless device signal range.
