Description
On large wind farms 100+ we have been effectively using scada , vibration and oil combined in single graph to know trends of the machine. In this case using scada data of wind turbine we pick up blade related pitch deviation while at same time combining main bearing vibration sensor we pick up bearing faults combining two different techniques in one place and finding source of this issue.
