This data logger is therefore excellent for monitoring vibrations in machines while simultaneously measuring and recording significant environmental conditions of the system. Manufacturing or processing machines, such as a multi-axis milling machine, do use significantly improved drive units; however, the data logger can still capture the basic vibration behavior of the machine and subsequently record the development of vibrations over time. This allows for the assessment of the milling machine's vibration behavior at short intervals and the localization of emerging sources of error.
