1.4 Philosophy of use
As above mentioned, the software provided with FastTracer are FTAnalyzer and Esplora 3D. With
the first, used to display and process measurement data, the user can analyse kinematic values such
as displacement, speed and acceleration in order to identify possible faults and establish their
effects. For example, to plan maintenance strategies for certain machine families, it is possible to
monitor a testing machine showing signs of a forthcoming fault and determine its effect on the
machine vibrational signature. After detecting the cause-effect relation, you can use the FTEditor
module of the FTAnalyzer to develop a test model dedicated to the concerned machine family. As
explained in chapter 5, this model can be used by less skilled users who, following the instructions
provided by the Esplora 3D software, will be led in the fault diagnosis function. The use of the
FastTracer for predictive maintenance reduces the number of inspections on the idle machine and
the number of stops due to unexpected faults, thus maximizing the maintenance efficiency and
effectiveness. Maintenance is simplified if you know in advance that a breakage or downtime is
approaching, as you can plan several aspects, such as personnel, spare parts and tools to be used,
thus saving costs and time.
