Kistler Webinar on Acoustic Emission: Technology and Applications

This webinar featuring Pascal Erne and Bill Zwolinski from Kistler gives a practical introduction to Acoustic Emission sensors and applications. Acoustic Emission (AE) is a transient elastic wave (also called Rayleigh wave) in the ultrasonic spectrum, typically occurring above 50 MHz. As a measurand, it can be used in many industries to detect stress in materials and to prevent damages and failures before they even occur. In this webinar record from March 17 2022 we show you how to best utilize this technology for condition monitoring and preventative maintenance applications. Our expert Bill Zwolinski explains AE prerequisites, measuring chains, and best practices in detail. Last but least he shows you how AE measurement technology from Kistler has evolved in recent years, especially in terms of applicability in demanding environments. Overall, the following AE topics are covered: Concept of operation, installation and mounting Operation in hazardous zones Signal processing and DAQ Applications such as fatigue/breakage, leaks and cavitation You can find more information about AE and related Kistler technology here. #AcousticEmission #KistlerWebinars #AEsensors
