Measurement and Analysis of Drilling Vibration Using Tracer DAQ and LABVIEW

This study presents a vibration measurement system using Micro-Electro-Mechanical Systems (MEMS) accelerometer design to measure the vibration of a vibration source. The LABVIEW program is developed to monitor and analyze measured data. The program first acquires the analogue input signal from the three different channels, and reads the data to be analyzed. The obtained measurement data during the measurement is illustrated graphically by means of Tracer DAQ and LABVIEW. Therefore, as a result of the analysis, vibration data obtained by means of two different programs are compared. Some preliminary results of this endeavor are presented. The error evaluation of these accelerometers has been performed according to the Mean Absolute Percentage Error (MAPE) method. In the conducted evaluation, Accelerometer (Acc) 1 is 0.033%, Acc 2 is 0.019% and Acc 3 is 0.055%. We have reached that findings of proposed study are similar.
