Monitoring Roller Bearings with Fiber Optic Sensors

Keywords: condition monitoring, roller bearing, fiber optic sensor, fiber Bragg grating, spectrometer

Monitoring of critical machine components during operation is an important task in measurement engineering. It is examined whether fiber optic sensors can be employed. By setting up a demonstrator for dynamic strain measurement on a roller bearing the state of the art in fiber optic strain sensing and its potential for machine monitoring is evaluated.
