摘要

Fault diagnosis of taper roller bearings needs to be accurate and efficient to ensure industrial machinery reliability. This research has developed a vibration-based fault diagnosis method which combines statistical feature ranking and machine learning classification. Vibration signals for the five different health conditions (healthy, inner race fault, outer race fault, roller fault, and cage fault) were collected from an SKF 32,206 taper roller bearing with changing speeds and loads. Two types of features, time-domain and frequency-domain, were derived and the features with the highest discriminating power were determined by one-way ANOVA and Kruskal Wallis statistical tests. Different combinations of features were tested with six classifiers: support vector machines (SVM), neural networks, discriminant analysis, naive bayes, decision trees, and nearest neighbor. It was found that Kruskal-Wallis feature-ranking benefits not only the result accuracy but also the computational efficiency, and the best feature set had 18 features. Thus, the linear SVM classifier yielded a classification accuracy of 99% and an AUC of 1, while requiring the least training time, demonstrating that it is suitable for real-time purposes. This work proposes a novel, dependable, and computationally efficient method of identifying faults in taper roller bearings, thus leading to greater automation of condition monitoring in industrial plants.
