At Grupo TICE, we analyse industrial machinery vibration problems from a comprehensive engineering perspective. We conduct measurements with accelerometers, study the dynamic behaviour of the equipment, identify the origin of the vibration and produce a precise technical diagnosis, then design and implement isolation and damping solutions to reduce the impact on the machine, the structure and the production process.
At Grupo TICE, we help companies identify, assess, and correct vibration issues in industrial machinery. Our technical team analyses each case individually to locate the source of the vibration, assess its severity, and define the most appropriate solution based on the equipment, the structure, and the actual operating conditions.
We carry out vibration measurements, technical diagnostics, and the development of isolation and damping solutions.
A vibration analysis is a technical study that allows for the evaluation of a machine's dynamic behaviour and the detection of anomalies before they develop into serious breakdowns. Through measurement equipment such as accelerometers and the analysis of the data obtained, it is possible to identify problems such as imbalances, misalignments, looseness, resonances, or bearing failures. This type of vibration study on industrial machinery helps in making technically-based decisions, optimising maintenance, and applying damping or isolation solutions when the problem also affects the structure or the production process.
At Grupo TICE, we undertake from the initial data capture, Analysis of results and comparison of regulations, design, and manufacture of shock absorbers, delivery of vibration analysis and installation of corrective measures if the project requires it.
Vibration incidents do not affect all machinery equally. Certain industrial equipment, especially that which operates with rotation, dynamic loads, or continuous running, is more prone to imbalances, misalignments, resonances, clearances, or structural transmissions.
At Grupo TICE, we carry out vibration analysis on machinery to detect these problems and install solutions that improve the reliability, safety, and performance of the facility.
These are machines highly prone to imbalances, misalignments, clearances, and bearing wear. A vibration analysis allows the source of the problem to be detected before it leads to a breakdown or an unplanned shutdown.
Vibrations in a data processing centre can affect the performance and reliability of sensitive equipment, servers, air conditioning systems, and support structures. A vibration analysis allows the source of the problem to be detected in time, operational failures to be avoided, and the risk of incidents that compromise service continuity to be reduced.
The vibrations in these systems are usually related to defects in gears, alignment problems, or progressive mechanical deterioration. Their diagnosis is key to avoiding damage to the transmission and losses in the installation's performance.
This type of machinery can generate vibrations due to imbalance, resonance, or mechanical fatigue in rotating elements and supports. Analysing its behaviour helps to reduce noise, improve reliability, and prevent transmission to the structure.
They work with high dynamic loads and demanding service conditions, making them particularly sensitive to severe vibrations and repetitive stresses. A technical study allows for the control of their impact on critical components and the extension of equipment service life.
The vibration in these systems can be caused by mechanical imbalances, poor supports, or irregularities during continuous operation. Detecting it in time helps to prevent failures, loosenings, and problems with the overall stability of the assembly.
On these machines, even small vibrations can directly affect the machining quality and process precision. Vibration analysis allows for the correction of instabilities that impact tolerances, finishes, and productivity.
These are equipment where any vibratory alteration can have a significant impact on safety, performance and maintenance. A technical diagnosis allows for the anticipation of failures and the definition of control measures adapted to the criticality of the installation.
It's not always the machine that's the problem; in many cases, vibration is transmitted to the receiving element, compromising its stability or function. In these situations, it's essential to study structural transmission and design isolation or damping solutions.
Industrial vibration analysis allows for the detection of abnormalities in machinery, the prevention of breakdowns, and the improvement of equipment reliability. At Grupo TICE we perform specialized measurements and design customized anti-vibration solutions to reduce risks, protect facilities, and ensure the continuity of production processes.
Vibration analysis provides real data on how a machine behaves during operation. This information is key to identifying the root cause of an issue, assessing its severity, and guiding a more technically precise solution.
Industrial vibration analysis provides technical information to assess the behavior of machinery, detect abnormalities, and justify corrective measures. When workers are exposed to mechanical vibrations, it can also contribute to risk assessment in accordance with Royal Decree 1311/2005. A documented diagnosis facilitates prevention, maintenance, and technical decision-making.
Detecting imbalances, misalignments, clearances, resonances, or bearing failures before they develop helps to avoid unscheduled downtime. Acting in good time reduces the impact on production and minimises the cost of reactive maintenance.
Excessive vibration accelerates the wear of bearings, mounts, transmissions, couplings, and other critical components. Controlling this behaviour helps to extend the service life of machinery and improve its reliability in service.
It's not always the generating set itself that's affected by the problem; in many cases, vibration is transmitted to bases, supports, floors, or nearby machinery. Analysing this transmission allows for the implementation of tailored isolation and damping measures for the installation.
At Grupo TICE we offer a comprehensive solution for industrial vibration control. We perform specialized measurements, identify the source of the problem, and design and install the necessary corrective measures. A complete engineering service, from the initial diagnosis to the implementation of anti-vibration solutions tailored to each installation.

At Grupo TICE, we apply an engineering methodology focused on identifying the origin of vibrations, assessing their real impact on machinery, and designing effective solutions to correct them. We combine technical measurement, specialised analysis, and the application of damping systems adapted to each installation to improve equipment reliability, safety, and performance.
We study the characteristics of the machinery, its operating conditions, and the installation environment to identify potential sources of vibration and their transmission paths. This initial assessment allows us to define the measurement points, establish the technical scope of the analysis, and plan an intervention tailored to each equipment.
We perform vibration measurements on machinery and industrial equipment using specialized instrumentation. We analyze the results to identify possible anomalies, assess their intensity, and determine the causes and transmission pathways. When appropriate, we compare the data with applicable technical and regulatory criteria to establish an accurate diagnosis.
We design solutions to reduce and control vibrations in industrial machinery, through shock absorbers, anti-vibration mounts and isolation systems adapted to each installation. We select the appropriate components based on the characteristics of the equipment, the loads it supports and the operating conditions, seeking to minimize the transmission of vibrations and improve their operational stability.
We prepare a technical report with the results of the measurements, the diagnosis of the detected vibrations and their possible causes. We include recommendations to reduce their transmission and improve the operation of the machinery. When the project requires it, we present a proposal for an anti-vibration solution adapted to the needs of the installation.
When the project requires it, we supply and install shock absorbers, anti-vibration mounts, and insulation systems adapted to each industrial equipment. We first present a technical and economic proposal for approval, offering a comprehensive solution that allows reducing the transmission of vibrations, protecting the machinery, and improving its operation.

It is a technical study that assesses how a machine behaves during its operation to detect anomalies before they evolve into breakdowns, stoppages, or performance losses. From the measurement and analysis of data, problems such as imbalances, misalignments, clearances, resonances, or bearing failures can be identified.
It is beneficial when the machine exhibits anomalous vibrations, mechanical noise, loose components, repetitive wear, bearing failures, or unplanned shutdowns. It is also advisable when you want to validate the condition of critical equipment or make maintenance decisions based on objective data.
Vibration measurement allows the dynamic behaviour of a machine to be recorded using sensors, typically at points such as supports, housing, or areas near bearings. The ISO guidelines for vibration evaluation of machinery establish measurement and evaluation criteria for both operational monitoring and technical acceptance.
This service can help detect imbalances, misalignments, gear defects, mechanical clearances, resonances, bearing degradation, and vibrational transmission problems to the structure. This is why vibration analysis is used as a key diagnostic tool in industrial machinery.
Active machines are those that generate vibration through their own operation, such as pumps, motors, fans, or compressors. Passive or receptor elements are supports, bases, floors, pipes, structures, or nearby equipment that receive and transmit this energy, meaning the problem is not always solely in the source, but also in how it propagates. This is particularly relevant when designing vibration isolation solutions.
ISO 10816 has been a widely used reference for evaluating vibration severity in machinery for years, but the most current series is the ISO 20816, which expands and updates measurement and evaluation criteria according to the type of machine. On a commercial page, you can cite “ISO 10816” because it is still a widely searched term, but technically, it is best to talk about ISO 10816 / ISO 20816 to clarify that 10816 has evolved to 20816.
Yes. HVAC systems can require vibration analysis and isolation because equipment such as air handling units, fans, chillers, rooftop units, ductwork, or piping can transmit vibration and noise to the building structure. In these cases, solutions such as anti-vibration mounts, springs, elastomeric supports, or specific hangers are typically employed.
Vibration isolation helps to reduce the energy transferred from the machine to the structure, thereby decreasing discomfort, structural noise, mechanical fatigue, and the risk of deterioration in equipment or supports. Furthermore, it can improve system stability and promote more reliable operation in industrial and HVAC installations.
They are particularly required by pumps, motors, fans, compressors, gearboxes, transmissions, belts, HVAC equipment, and other rotating or continuously operating machinery. These are typologies where vibration assessment is especially useful for anticipating failures and deciding on corrective measures.
Yes. That's one of our main differentiators. At Grupo TICE, we work with a vision of 360 engineering, so we are not limited to vibration analysis: we analyse the problem, design the most suitable solution and also carry out the implementation of corrective measures.
This allows for a single technical point of contact throughout the entire process, from initial analysis to final execution, improving project coordination and ensuring that the solution truly aligns with the root of the problem and the needs of the environment.
