Method and device for determining potential damage of an endless track of a tracked vehicle

A device for determining potential damage of an endless track of a tracked vehicle, said tracked vehicle comprising at least one track assembly comprising a drive wheel member, a tension wheel member, a set of road wheels and said endless track disposed in its longitudinal extension around said wheels, said endless track being configured to be rotated by means of said drive wheel member during drive of the tracked vehicle, said device comprising at least one sensor for obtaining measurement information associated with vibrations of said endless track, and at least one processor operatively connected to said at least one sensor, wherein said at least one processor is configured to:

• receive, from said at least one sensor, measurement information associated with vibrations of said endless track;
• based on the information received from said at least one sensor, determine if there is a natural frequency of said endless track and if so determine the natural frequency of said endless track;
• and,
• based on the determination associated with natural frequency, determine whether or not there is a potential damage to the endless track.
