Abstract
A method for processing vibration data includes receiving shaft displacement data, from a pair of sensors, including shaft center X-axis displacement and shaft center Y-axis displacement, which are orthogonal to each other. The method includes converting the shaft displacement data to shaft velocity data by calculating a difference in shaft displacement over time and/or converting into shaft acceleration data by calculating a different in shaft velocity over time. The shaft velocity or acceleration data is filtered, sorted and grouped into three or more groups, assigning a color to each velocity group or acceleration group. The method generates an image of a velocity or acceleration orbit plot, where the X-axis displacement and the Y-axis displacement define coordinate pairs of a trace of shaft center displacement, and the velocity or acceleration group between each coordinate pair defines a display color of the trace.
