Abstract :
We demonstrate a fiber-optic sensor for monitoring mechanical vibrations in high-power electric machines built using 3D-printing. We describe the design, mechanical and optical modeling, and the results of its preliminary characterization. The measurements show linear sensor response in the frequency range 10 to 150 Hz.
