Abstract

Planetary gear systems are widely used in different industry machinery due to the high transmission ratio and carrying capacity. However, the unacceptable manufacturing errors and faults in the key parts of the planetary gear systems can be easily caused by the unreasonable assemble processing and poor working conditions. To overcome this problem, a vibration diagnosis method for detecting the faults in a planetary gear system is proposed in this work. An experiment rig is conducted to obtain the vibration data of the planetary gear system. The frequency-domain vibration signals are used to diagnose the faults in the planetary gear system. The characteristic frequency of the planetary gear is modulated by the double frequency of the carrier rotation frequency. It seems that the vibration characteristic frequencies caused by the axis misalignment error of the planet gears is observed. The diagnose results are also verified by the disassemble works. This works can provide some guidance for the vibration diagnosis methods for the faults in the planetary gear systems.
