Description
Summary:Accurate degradation state recognition of rolling bearing is critical to effective condition based on maintenance for improving reliability and safety. In this work, a new architecture is proposed to recognize the degradation state of the rolling bearing. Firstly, the time-domain features including RMS, kurtosis, skewness and RMSEE, and Mel-frequency cepstral coefficients features are extracted from bearing vibration signals, which are then used as the input of k-means algorithm. These unlabeled features are clustered by k-means in order to define the different categories of the bearing degradation state. In this way, the original vibration signals can be labeled. Then, the convolutional neural network recognition model is built, which takes the bearing vibration signals as input, and outputs the degradation state category. So, interference brought by human factors can be eliminated, and further, the bearing degradation can be grasped so as to make maintenance plan in time. The proposed method was tested by bearing run-to-failure dataset provided by the Center for Intelligent Maintenance System, and the result proved the feasibility and reliability of the methodology.
