description Condition monitoring has been an active area of research in many industrial fields during the last decades, particularly in fluid power systems. This paper presents a solution for the fault diagnosis of a variable displacement axial-piston pump, which is a critical component in many hydraulic systems. The proposed methodology follows a data-driven approach including data acquisition and feature extraction and is based on the analysis of acceleration signals through the theory of cyclostationarity. An experimental campaign was carried out on a laboratory test bench with the pump in the flawless state and in faulty states. Different operating conditions were considered and each test was repeated several times in order to acquire a suitable population to verify data repeatability. Results showed the capability of the proposed approach of detecting a typical fault related to worn slippers. Future works will include tests in order to apply the approach to a wider set of faults and the development of a classifier for accurate fault identification.
