Robot Joint NVH Measurement Method Passport

Name the output, operating state, fixture, sensor geometry, rotational reference, timebase and processing version before comparing NVH. An observed peak is not a gear, bearing, motor or control diagnosis.

Measurement passport

ControlRequired declarationProject entry / evidence
OutputHousing vibration, sound pressure, order map, spectrum, time event or structural response; include units and statistic
DUT and fixtureIncluded components, mounting, sensor location/axis, microphone geometry, support, external load and cable state
Operating stateDirection, speed/trajectory, acceleration, load, inertia, position, reversal, controller/brake, thermal and lubricant state
Reference and timebaseEncoder/tach source and plane, pulses/angle interpretation, clock, trigger, synchronization and discontinuity handling
AcquisitionSensor IDs, ranges, sensitivity, mounting, sample rate, anti-aliasing, clipping, duration and raw retention
ProcessingWindows, overlap, averaging, filtering, detrending, resampling, order resolution and software version
ValidityBackground/fixture checks, state tolerance, invalid interval, repeat/retest and comparison-variable rule
AcceptanceMetric, location/axis, state, statistic, reference/tolerance source, variation/uncertainty and decision rule

Root-cause stop boundary

ObservationAllowed conclusionAdditional evidence before causal assignment
Peak or orderReport correlation and operating stateControlled speed/load/direction changes, verified kinematics and additional sensor planes
Before/after changeReport bounded differenceComparable fixture, thermal/controller state, processing plus inspection or isolation evidence
Invalid dataRetain and flagRecorded reason, correction, linked retest and original evidence preservation

Scope limit: This passport makes no Weiheng noise, vibration, bandwidth, sampling, diagnostic, life or universal acceptance claim.
