To solve the problem of a low signal-to-noise ratio of fault signals and the difficulty in effectively and accurately identifying the fault state in the early stage of motor bearing fault occurrence, this paper proposes an early fault diagnosis method for bearings based on the Differential Local Mean Decomposition (DLMD) and fusion of current–vibration signals. This method uses DLMD to decompose the current signal and vibration signal, respectively, and weights the decomposed product function (PF) according to the kurtosis value to reconstruct the signal, and then fuses the reconstructed signals to obtain the current–vibration fusion signal after normalization, and then analyzes the fusion signal spectrally through the Hilbert envelope spectrum. Finally, the fusion signal is analyzed by the Hilbert envelope spectrum, and a clear fault characteristic frequency is obtained. The experimental results demonstrate that compared to traditional bearing fault diagnosis methods, the proposed method significantly improves the signal-to-noise ratio of fault signals, effectively enhances the sensitivity of early-stage fault detection in motor bearings, and improves the accuracy of fault identification.
