Sumario: | A study on the gearbox (speed reducer) defect detection models built from the raw vibration signal measured by a triaxial accelerometer and based on convolutional neural networks (CNNs) is presented. Gear faults such as localized pitting, localized wear on helical pinion tooth flanks, and lubricant low level are under observation for three rotating velocities of the actuator and three load levels at the reducer output. A deep learning approach, based on 1D-CNN or 2D-CNN, is employed to extract from the vibration image significant signal features that are used further to identify one of the four states (one normal and three defects) of the system, regardless of the selected load level or the speed. The best-performing 1D-CNN-based detection model, with a testing accuracy of 98.91%, was trained on the signals measured on the Y axis along the reducer input shaft direction. The vibration data acquired from the X and Z axes of the accelerometer proved to be less relevant in discriminating the states of the gearbox, the corresponding 1D-CNN-based models achieving 97.15% and 97% testing accuracy. The 2D-CNN-based model, built using the data from all three accelerometer axes, detects the state of the gearbox with an accuracy of 99.63%. |
