Infrared Mechanical Inspections
Most visual mechanical inspections must be performed while the machine is “off” and in a non-working mode causing a costly stop in production and even more costly repairs due to lack of data about what part is actually in need of replacing.
However, an infrared mechanical inspection can be performed while the operation of your system is “on” and in working order allowing our thermographers to visually see what component is at a loss or is in need of repairs and/or replacement. Since these inspections are performed when your equipment is under normal loads and during its usual operating conditions, data can be provided that will show you not only current issues but ones that could be a potential problem in the near future including excessive electrical resistance, worn components, lack of lubrication / lubrication failure, alignment, overloads and other common mechanical problems.
