Detection of damage is a significant issue in providing efficiency and safety in industrial processes. In underground mining much research effort is made for developing an automatic system of diagnosing the machinery using robots. One of the major groups of equipment utilized and maintained in the mines is rotating machinery. Local damage occurring in such machines commonly have a cyclostationary character in short term as any change in their characteristics is expected to repeat periodically. In most cases they can be easily detected based on vibration signals measured with contact sensors (accelerometers). However if mobile robots such as UAV (unmanned aerial vehicles) are planned to be used, remote measurement is firmly preferred. In this paper we compare vibrational detection with a novel approach based on analysing an acoustic signal recorded by a microphone.
