Welcome to Mobius, the international, independent vibration training company.  This is the home of the world-renowned iLearn products and the Mobius Institute vibration training and certification organization.

 

 

 

Merry Christmas to everyone!  

We have a special Christmas card with a message to all of our friends.  Click here to see the card, and to read a special message about 2009.

 

To master vibration analysis you must understand the machines you are monitoring, the analyzer you are using, and the concepts behind vibration analysis.  We will help you gain that knowledge - not in a theoretical way, bogged down with complicated mathematics; we will provide practical training, enhanced with advanced software simulators and real data.  You will enjoy our training, and afterwards you will perform your work with greater confidence (and walk ten feet tall when you become certified).

 

We offer three unique benefits:
 

Understandable training: You can master vibration analysis and shaft alignment thanks to our unique training methods.  more »»
 

Respected certification: Become internationally recognized and respected by your peers.  Our certification follows ISO and ASNT standards. more »»

 

Indispensible products: Make your day-to-day work easier and improve your accuracy.  What price would you pay for reduced stress?  more »»

I want to master vibration analysis
 

If you would like to master vibration analysis, then you need iLearnVibration for self-paced training and reference; you need Interpreter to aid your analysis, and you should attend one of our training classes.  We have the best vibration training classes in the world.  That may sound like a big statement to make, but if you read a little further you will agree.

 

 


Step-by-step training.  Learn at your own pace, one slide at a time.


Learn with 'live' case studies from real machines with real fault conditions.

Vibration analysis is tough without iLearnVibration
 

Anyone who owns iLearnVibration will tell you that you are making life difficult for yourself if you don't own this innovative system.  It will take you step-by-step through everything you need to know to achieve great results with your vibration data collection system. 

 

You can take the lessons, learn from the case histories, and play with the simulators.

 

How would you feel if you understood more about your data collector, and could analyze spectra with greater confidence?  Just load it onto your computer and away you go.  Use it whenever you have time, and whenever you have questions.  Just make sure you use it, because there is way too much to know about vibration analysis to leave it to a few days of training.
 

Click here to learn more about iLearnVibration.

     


Drag the icon on to the spectrum.  Interpreter will find the patterns and help you diagnose faults.

Could dragging an icon onto a spectrum help me perform analysis?

 

There is another way to make your job easier - use iLearnInterpreter.  It is so easy to use.  When you are analyzing a spectrum, just drag the hand icon from your system tray on to the spectrum and it will analyze it for you.  How cool is that!?  It will show you the patterns, and explain how it made its diagnosis.  So it helps you and teaches you.  The only question you will have is - why doesn't it cost more?

This simulator explains the FFT process; creating the spectrum from the time waveform.


This simulator explains bearing vibration patterns and amplitude modulation.


This simulator explains how phase measurements are taken, how strobes are used, and how diagnoses are made.

 I do better with live training

Most of us need to kick start our training by attending a course.  Now, you could attend one of their courses, and just sit for three days looking at slides, or you could come to one of our courses and be wowed with our modern training tools and experienced instructors.  You have to see them to believe them! 

We offer public courses, or we can come to your site and deliver a course that is customized to your needs.
 
In addition to receiving great training, you receive the iLearnVibration [Student Edition] to help you prepare for the course and review everything you learned after the course (just on the off chance that you forget something that you were taught).

We have so many cool animations and software simulations.  They make it so much easier to understand the many concepts and procedures.  They say a picture tells a thousand worlds.  Our animations and simulations must tell a million words - but you will enjoy every one of them!

 

To see a presentation on what sets our training courses apart, click here.

 

By the way, our courses follow the ISO 18436-2 and ASNT standards, and you can take the certification exam.  We hold courses in lots of countries around the world, so there is a good chance there is one being held where ever you call home.

I can't come to a course

 

If you cannot attend a course, then we can train you while you stay at home.  We offer mentored training (also known as distance learning).  You use iLearnVibration to receive your training, but partner with our instructors to get personal tuition when you have questions.

 

You can learn more here.

Of course, we can visit your plant to give you a customized course.

 


3D animations make it all so easy to understand.


Dial-indicator methods and laser alignment methods are described in details.

What about shaft alignment?

 

Those laser alignment guys make it sound so easy - strap on the lasers, give them a spin, and you'll have an answer.  If only it were always so easy!

 

iLearnAlignment will explain everything, and show you how the various systems work - both laser and dial.  Whether you are brand new to alignment, or you need a refresher, iLearnAlignment will make you a master aligner.

By the way, you can view iLearnAlignment via a Web browser, or integrate it with your corporate Learning Management System.

 

  

 

 

 

Nice words from great people!

 

What do your fellow analysts think about our products and courses?

 

“By the way, your vibration training software is great. It's made a big difference in the success of our program.”

Marianne Krantz
Johns Manville, USA

 

..................................................

"We have the iLearn series and it is phenomenal. We're just starting to train a couple new guys and it is indispensable. From setting up a program to how the sensors work to all the analysis, it is very well thought out and easy to move around to look at different examples/lessons. I highly recommend it as well."

Patrick Lawrence
International Paper

 

..................................................

"Your product is definitely worth every penny paid for it."
Roy Gariepy
Consultant

 

..................................................

"Your course is one of the best computer-based methods I have used (in fact it is the only one I would recommend, regardless of subject)."
Jim Gill
Equipment Diagnostics
Eastman Kodak Company

 

..................................................

"We have been using the iLearnVibration package for 3 years now, I quite often refer to it when stumped with a problem, its very useful and a good tool to reaffirm some points that you sometimes forget to think of."

David Mumford
Yallourn Energy

 

..................................................

"I'd like to take this chance to say that I found the Mobius Institute Vibration II course to be the most beneficial course that I have attended to date. The course tied together the concepts of the frequency domain, time domain and phase extremely well. The simulators gave a very clear visual
understanding of the concepts. Being able to control the speed allowed for greater interrogation of the concepts.

 

I would recommend the Mobius Vibration courses to anybody who wants to get a full and clear understanding of VA. The certification was long overdue and the quick reference guide + the vibration mouse pads are a smart addition to the package.


Well done to you for a excellent training package."

"Overall I found it to be an excellent course, and certainly one of the most beneficial that I personally have attended. Luckily enough I was able to start applying some of the content the week after completing the course, so the benefits have been evident immediately."

Rodney Bussey
Condition Monitoring Engineer
Silcar Wesley Vale

..................................................

"First of all is the quality of the topics discussed and the best thing is to have them available all the time when needed and share between our technical people day by day. This is exactly as you say at the advertisements on the Internet, remember I was using it before and I am truly convinced of this benefit."

Patricio Troya
Wartsila

 

..................................................

"Thanks to Jason and Clyde for a great Category II course. The material was presented with clarity and enthusiasm, while the daily exercises using the i-Learn simulations were invaluable. Looking forward to the Category III vibration course."
Mark Langford
Reliability Engineer
Murray Goulburn Co-op

“I have recently finished iLearnVibration Level 2 training. I would recommend this to anyone as training that is REAL value for money. I have done a lot of training in my working life of 24 years and this is by far the best."

Paul Bing

Winstone Pulp

 

..................................................

"I just finished the Vibration Analyst I portion of iLearn Vibration and I can't wait to do the rest of the lessons and modules. I have been both a teacher and a pupil on many levels and I have to say that your program is the best I have ever used. Not only is it easy to use, but the narrations make the information easy to pay attention and stay interested. If I had to listen to a slide over again, it was because of an external interruption like the phone.

 

I absolutely love that you assume the student knows nothing and built a foundation first. Each session builds on the previous, instead of being bombarded with knowledge and acronyms that are not yet understood. I was absolutely amazed of my level of understanding just after one lesson.
 
Your ability to break down complex concepts into easy and manageable sessions of fundamental and even elementary building blocks of understanding is far superior to any other method I have even seen."

Cash Stocker
Preventive Maintenance Technician Nucor Steel Berkeley

 

..................................................

"The software is great! I am a Technical Associates Level II and even for me it has helped clear up some grey areas for me. I wish I had this software 5 years ago when I first got into this line of work as I am sure I would have progressed at a much faster rate."

Paul Jordan
Consultant

"...all credit goes to the very well designed interactive training method by Mobius Institute. Every thing is very well explained so that a student like me can easily understand all concepts and techniques. So congratulations for you."
