The article considers torsional vibrations in combination with other technical factors, which remain a cause of damages and breakdowns of the ship's propeller shafts, intermediate shafts and crankshafts. Torsional vibrations inevitably occur in the ship plants. It can be explained by the uneven torque of the engine and the torque on the propeller (exposure of the propeller, uneven movement of the water flow, stormy weather, etc.), which leads to alternating twisting of the shaft. To reduce torsional vibrations, dampers are used, which require periodic performance testing by using the torsiography procedure. In contrast to the existing monitoring systems of the technical condition of the damper, it is planned to install an information processing unit for the software and hardware complex for monitoring torsional vibrations of the ship's shaft line and the parameters associated with them (vibration and temperature changes of the flexible elements of the connecting couplings). The unit under development will allow to constantly monitor the level of torsional vibrations and, if they increase, to signal the ship's mechanic to switch to another operational mode of the main engine, which will increase the reliability and automation of the ship power plants, the safety of navigation, and reduce the economic costs of ship operating
