Vibration signals are a critical indicator of a touch screen's mechanical health. By analyzing changes in amplitude, frequency, and time-frequency characteristics, the system can identify deviations from normal operating conditions. This approach allows for the early detection of anomalies that might signify impending failures, preventing costly downtime and maintenance.
Field-Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs) are central to achieving the high real-time performance required for industrial fault diagnosis. Their parallel processing capabilities significantly accelerate signal acquisition, filtering (e.g., IIR digital filtering), and complex transformations like Fast Hilbert Transform, which would be much slower on traditional microprocessors. This enables immediate fault detection and response.
Piezoelectric thin-film sensors are selected for their small size, fast response, and wide adaptability. These sensors effectively convert mechanical vibrations and pressure changes on the touch screen into electrical signals. Their robust nature and ability to generate a voltage output directly from deformation make them ideal for capturing subtle operational deviations, feeding precise data into the diagnostic system.

Simulated Industrial Fan Fault Detection
In a simulated environment, the system successfully detected an artificial dynamic imbalance in a household electric fan. By adding a small mass block to one fan blade, increased vibration amplitude was generated, which the system accurately identified through real-time signal analysis. This demonstrates the system's ability to detect subtle mechanical faults.
Outcome: The system proved effective in identifying early signs of mechanical imbalance, validating its potential for real-world industrial fault diagnosis scenarios, particularly for low-end machines requiring mobile operation.
