Abstract: The present invention relates to a system configured to monitor a condition of a rotating system comprising a main bearing, the monitoring arrangement having a first measurement device configured to be arranged at a first location in proximity of the main bearing for determining a first measurement indicative of a current flow at the first location, and a control unit connected to the measurement device. The control unit is further configured to form a first parameter based on the first measurement, match the first parameter with a plurality of predetermined current flow profiles, each of the plurality of predetermined current flow profiles being indicative of a condition of the rotating system, determine, if a matching current flow profile is found, a relevance level for the corresponding condition, and provide an indication of an alarm if the relevance level is above a predetermined threshold.

Abstract: Method for determining the contact angle (?) of a rolling element bearing (10) comprising an inner ring (12), an outer ring (14) and a plurality, P, of rolling elements (16) interposed between the inner ring (12) and the outer ring (14). The method comprises the step of determining the relative speed of P?1 or fewer of said plurality, P, of rolling elements (16) with respect to the inner ring (12) and/or the outer ring (14) and determining the contact angle (?) of said rolling element bearing (10) therefrom.

Abstract: A method of detecting an electric current through a main bearing of a rotating system comprising: a hub; a plurality of blades connected to the hub; at least one electrical motor arranged at the hub; a main shaft attached to the hub and enclosing cabling for providing electrical power to the at least one electrical motor; a bearing housing attached to a metallic structure acting as electrical earth; and a main bearing having an inner ring attached to the main shaft and an outer ring attached to the bearing housing, the method comprising the steps of: providing a first measurement device for determining a measure indicative of an electric current in the main shaft at a first location on a side of the main bearing facing the hub; providing a second measurement device for determining a measure indicative of an electric current in the main shaft at a second location on a side of the main bearing facing away from the hub; determining a measure indicative of a difference between a first current flowing through the

Abstract: A device, method and computer program product are disclosed for indicating a function deviation of one or more details of manufacturing equipment using frequency component analysis for analyzing deviations between a nominal product shape and an actual product shape of a product using surface data of a physical surface, the product having been processed by the manufacturing equipment. The analysis can be based on the surface data and a set of function deviation indicating frequencies corresponding to frequencies at which function deviations occur in the one or more details. The function deviation indicating frequencies can be comprised in a frequency map. A method of configuring a frequency map is also disclosed.
