Vibration database August 1st 2004 An updated database of field tool vibration data developed by the Industrial Noise and Vibration Centre is said to offer companies the prospect of never again having to measure tool vibration.
HAV-Base is believed to be the largest database of accurate field vibration data available. Version 3 supports the revised requirements in the forthcoming regulations, extends the range of plant covered and has additional management tools to customise automated assessment reports.
This dovetails with the recommendation in the consultative document to use reliable published field vibration data in preference to measurement wherever possible (declared values from suppliers cannot be used for risk assessment). More articles from Industrial Noise & Vibration Centre Ltd: |
