ABSTRACT:
A manufacturing apparatus which includes a rotary machine, includes: a plurality of accelerometers configured to measure diagnosis time series data attached to the rotary machine at locations where variations of the rotary machine are different; a frequency analysis device configured to perform a frequency analysis on the diagnosis time series data measured by the plurality of accelerometers; a time series data recording module configured to generate diagnosis data based on variations in characteristics of vibration corresponding to an analysis target frequency and to record the diagnosis data; and a life prediction unit configured to analyze the diagnosis data to determine a life span of the rotary machine.
