Elevating electric motor performance through rigorous vibration control and standardization
Abstract
This study addresses the critical need for enhanced vibration control and standardization in electric motors, pivotal to the operational efficiency of electric vehicles and thus, environmental sustainability. Recognizing the gap in unified standards for managing machine vibration, we propose a novel, integrated framework combining advanced vibrodiagnostic techniques and rigorous standardization processes. Our methodology involves a detailed analysis of existing vibration control practices, identifying deficiencies in current standards, and presenting an improved, comprehensive guideline tailored to electric motors’ unique requirements in transportation applications. The innovation of our approach lies in its dual focus on technical precision and environmental sustainability, offering a significant leap forward in vibrodiagnostics. We demonstrate the framework’s practical value through its potential to revolutionize electric motor maintenance strategies, enhance machine longevity, and reduce environmental impact. This research contributes to the broader goals of reducing greenhouse gas emissions and advancing sustainable transportation, emphasizing the importance of vibration control standards in achieving energy efficiency and reliability in electric transport systems.
