Research on Fault Feature Extraction Method of Rolling Bearing Based on NMD and Wavelet Threshold Denoising

الملخص EN

Rolling bearings are the core components of the machine.

In order to save costs and prevent accidents caused by bearing failures, the rolling bearing fault diagnosis technology has been widely used in the industrial field.

At present, the proposed methods include wavelet transform, morphological filtering, empirical mode decomposition (EMD), and ensemble empirical mode decomposition (EEMD), which have obvious shortcomings.

As it is difficult to extract the fault characteristic frequency caused by nonlinear and nonstationary features of the rolling bearing fault signal, this paper presents a fault feature extraction method of rolling bearing based on nonlinear mode decomposition (NMD) and wavelet threshold denoised method.

First of all, the fault signal was preprocessed via wavelet threshold denoising.

Then, the denoised signal was decomposed by using NMD.

Next, the mode component envelope spectrum was made.

Finally, the fault characteristic frequency of rolling bearing was extracted.

The method was compared with EMD through the simulation experiment and rolling bearing fault experiment.

Meanwhile, two indicators including signal-noise ratio (SNR) and root-mean-square error (RMSE) were also established to evaluate the fault diagnosis ability of this method, and the results show that this method can extract the fault characteristic frequency accurately.
