MECHANICAL INFRARED INSPECTIONS
FIND ABNORMAL HEAT BEFORE MOVING EQUIPMENT BECOMES A PRODUCTION PROBLEM
CONDITION MONITORING FOR OPERATING EQUIPMENT
Motors, bearings, pumps, conveyors and other mechanical systems produce recognizable heat patterns while operating. Accurate Infrared compares components and operating conditions to identify abnormal heating associated with friction, lubrication problems, misalignment, loading differences, airflow restrictions and developing equipment faults.
Infrared allows a large amount of operating equipment to be screened without interrupting production. Significant findings are communicated promptly, and the report helps maintenance personnel decide where additional testing, lubrication, alignment or repair work should be focused.
SCREEN
Inspect operating equipment efficiently without stopping normal production whenever access permits.
COMPARE
Evaluate similar components, loads and operating conditions to separate normal heat from suspect patterns.
ACT
Use concise findings to prioritize follow-up testing and planned maintenance before equipment fails.
FIELD EXAMPLES
Representative imagery from real field assignments. Client, vessel and location details are intentionally withheld.
TYPICAL MECHANICAL SCOPE
A PRACTICAL PART OF A CONDITION-MONITORING PROGRAM
Mechanical thermography is especially useful for screening repetitive assets across production lines and facilities with large equipment inventories. Trending repeatable inspection points over time can help maintenance teams recognize changing conditions and focus resources where they matter most.
Infrared records surface temperature patterns and does not replace vibration analysis, ultrasound, oil analysis or physical inspection. When appropriate, we can coordinate infrared and ultrasound work to give your team a broader view of the equipment condition.
