Different approaches to condition monitoring and failure detection are necessary since rolling element bearing problems are a major contributor to total machine failures. Recent developments in machine learning, which reduce the need for planned maintenance, further quicken the effort to increase defect detection accuracy for financial reasons. Difficult issues remain, such as collecting high-quality data to explicitly train an algorithm, and are made harder by the scarcity of historical data. Furthermore, failure data derived from measurements is usually limited to specific equipment components, like Vernier callipers, which offers only round off thrust bearing values. To overcome this, the study works on deep learning, artificial intelligence & Machine vision technologies are introduced with precise measurement values of thrust bearing.
