This work presents the study and design of vibration analyzer self-powered by energy harvesting, using piezoelectric and magnetic components to convert mechanical energy into electric energy. A prototype vibration analysis instrument was developed to monitor the operating state of machines and motors. This system is powered by a Lithium battery which by its own is recharged by the generator, providing the configuration of self-sufficient to the system. The hybrid structure proposed in this work analyzes and demonstrates the gains and obtained from the miscegenation of two generator models. The results obtained from simulations and tests in the experimental platform show an effective solution for power generation for low energy consumption devices and instruments.
