Application of Vibration Diagnostic Procedures in the Technical Service and Maintenance System of the Hungarian Defence Forces – Part 1

Abstract

The structure of modern vehicles is more and more  complex because of the continuous improvement of  technics. The application of automatic computer control  system is widespread. Consequently, the involvement of  diagnostic procedures became necessary in maintenance  and repair operations, beyond subjective examinations and  inspections. Military technology equipment with computer systems are continuously authorised in the Hungarian  Defence Forces. The technical service and repair of these  equipments is feasible with application of modern  diagnostic procedures. A maintenance process based on  regular use of diagnostic procedures ensures advantages  by reason of quick and exact work methods. The vibration  diagnostic is the most often used diagnostic inspection. According to the vibration of the equipment we are able to  check the components and determine the exact location of  the failure without any destruction. The regular, long-term  application of vibration diagnostic gauges and the  experiences based on these make possible to forecast the defect time and organise the repair processes.
