Abstract
A method for assessing preload degradation of a ball screw is to be implemented by a computer device. The method includes: obtaining an entry of time-domain vibration data based on a vibration signal which is related to vibrations of balls of the ball screw; obtaining an entry of frequency-domain vibration derived data based on the time-domain vibration data; obtaining a vibration eigenvector based on the entry of frequency-domain vibration derived data; performing preload assessment based on the vibration eigenvector, reference vibration vectors and a preload assessment range to obtain a result of the preload assessment; and determining whether preload degradation has occurred on the ball screw based on the result of the preload assessment.
