Data Augmentation in 2D Feature Space for Intelligent Weak Fault Diagnosis of Planetary Gearbox Bearing

Featured Application Planetary gearbox bearings weak faults Intelligent diagnosis. Quickly detecting and accurately diagnosing early bearing faults is the key to ensuring the stable operation of high-precision equipment. In actual industrial applications, it is common to face the issues of big data and poor fault identification accuracy. To accurately and automatically realize the diagnostics of rolling bearings, a convolutional neural network algorithm and fault feature enhancement method is proposed. A two-dimensional space feature extraction method based on the Cyclostationary theory and wavelet transform shows good results in noise suppression. Firstly, the cyclic demodulation of wavelet transform coefficients is performed on bearing vibration signals to convert one-dimensional vibration data into a two-dimensional spectrogram for enhancing the weak fault feature. Secondly, the image segmentation theory is introduced, which can obtain more data and improve the calculation accuracy and efficiency on the basis of data dimension reduction. Finally, the augmented 2D spectrograms are inputted into a convolutional neural network. Through the analysis of the actual planetary gearbox bearing data, and compared with other mainstream intelligence algorithms, the effectiveness and superiority of this method are verified.
