Welcome to everything you need to analyze, diagnose, monitor and trend and report all of your vibration collection data.
DAART is a entirely separate software program that allows you to perform in-depth analysis on your collected data.
DAART (Datastick Advanced Analysis and Reporting Toolkit) includes all of the functions and features of Datastick Reporting System for VSA and then adds an impressive array of powerful, advanced tools for vibration analysts.
- Bearing database integration: import bearing information from any bearing database that can be presented as an Excel file, comma- or tab-delimited file, or plain-text file.
- Exclusive PulseDomain™ demodulation technology optimizes the signal to noise ratio in demodulation to more effectively show small impact peaks and reduce random noise so you can spot bearing faults early.
- Exclusive Sharpener™ for frequency-domain and demodulation spectra has near-perfect accuracy in both amplitude and frequency at the same time so you can more accurately spot important harmonics.
- Exclusive Peaking™ metric puts a reliable numerical value on peak energy.
- Exclusive Impact Factor™ provides a reliable numerical indicator of periodic pulse energy.
- Cepstrum graphs for geartrain analysis.
- Waveform integration and de-integration provides quick conversion of waveforms to or from acceleration, velocity, and displacement.
- Power Spectral Density (PSD) calculations with user-specified frequency spans.
- Import .WAV audio files and convert to waveforms and FFT graphs for analysis.
- Raise or lower the audio pitch by up to five octaves to bring them into audible range.
- Export vibration waveforms as .WAV sound files for data exchange so others can hear what the machine sounds like.
- Instant trend reports, multi-trend reports, exception reports, and summary reports
- No mandatory service contract.
- PulseDomain Demodulation. This technology used proprietary math to optimize the signal to noise ration in demodulation to show a clearer distinction between peaks and noise than has been achieved before.
- Sharpener. DAART’s exclusive Sharpener peak-clarification technology shows you accurate frequency-domain information in any FFT or PulseDomain graph. Conventional FFT windowing, such as Hanning, Rectangular, or Flattop, make compromises in frequency or amplitude or both as part of their action.
Sharpening is not the same as windowing. It is a completely new way of showing any frequency-domain and demodulation information with little or no significant compromise of frequency or amplitude accuracy.
Two NEW Vibration Energy Metrics. For years, analysts have used Crest Factor—peak amplitude of a waveform divided by the RMS value—to get a rough idea of how much impacting is occurring in a waveform.
However, Crest Factor is often unreliable because it can be significantly swayed by the other factors such as the overall dynamic vibration level, so it does not optimally reflect the total amount of damaging peak impact energy. Datastick’s DAART gives you two new metrics that provide a more reliable way of finding trouble areas quickly, easily, and reliably. Both new metrics focus on the high-frequency energy where damaging impact forces occur.
- Peaking shows excessive energy contained in high-frequency peaks. It is expressed in g's, and can be interpreted as a portion of the overall vibration energy.
- Impact Factor concentrates on periodic bursts of energy. It is expressed numerically on a scale of 0 to 4.
