摘要：For rolling mill machines, the operation status of bearing has a close relationship with process safety and production effectiveness. Therefore, reliable fault diagnosis and classification are indispensable. Traditional methods always characterize fault feature using a single fault vector, which may fail to reveal whole fault influences caused by complex process disturbances. Besides, it may also lead to poor fault classification accuracy. To solve the above-mentioned problems, a fault extraction method is put forward to extract multiple feature vectors and then a classification model is developed. First, to collect sufficient data, a data acquisition system based on wireless sensor network is constructed to replace the traditional wired system which may bring dangers during production. Second, the measured signal is filtered by a morphological average filtering algorithm to remove process noise and then the empirical mode decomposition method is applied to extract the intrinsic mode function (IMF) which contains the fault information. On the basis of the IMFs, a time domain index (energy) and a frequency index (singular values) are proposed through Hilbert envelope analysis. From the above analysis, the energy index and the singular value matrix are used for fault classification modeling based on the enhanced extreme learning machine (ELM), which is optimized by the bat algorithm to adjust the input weights and threshold of hidden layer node. In comparison with the fault classification methods based on SVM and ELM, the experimental results show that the proposed method has higher classification accuracy and better generalization ability.
