Horizontal – Typically, imbalanced shafts tend to
cause radial (horizontal and vertical) vibrations,
depending on the machine support design.
Vertical – Excessive vertical vibration can indicate
mechanical looseness as well as imbalance.
Axial – Excessive axial vibration is a strong indicator
of misalignment.
It’s important to note that these are general
guidelines for horizontal shafts and that knowledge of
your machinery and proper hand-held sensor
techniques are necessary to accurately interpret the
cause of excessive vibration.
