Abstract

The paper presents research aimed at diagnosing early cases of wear of gears tooth surface in the gearbox based on measurements of vibration signals and their processing using the wavelet packet transform. Analysis concerned the vibration signals recorded in a test bench experiment, during which the wear of gears teeth increased (pitting and spalling). The studies allow conclusions to be drawn that the processing of vibration signals using the wavelet packet transform allows the detection of early cases of wear of the working surface of the teeth on the basis of an analysis of selected details of wavelet decomposition and vibration measures.
