When it is necessary to identify possible corrections to a component, we offer a diagnostic procedure when a machine arrives for overhaul. This process is carried out through visual inspection, non-destructive testing, dimensional inspection, and failure analysis.
Visual inspection – The analysis of the equipment where noticeable faults are identified, which facilitates the detection of what needs to be repaired. This process requires a high degree of technical experience to recognize failures. The quick detection and repair of defects are synonymous with savings.
Non-destructive testing – In case of failures not identified in a visual inspection, it is possible to carry out a non-destructive testing (NDT), which is a technique used to detect and evaluate possible cracks, pores or variations, without changing their structural properties (physical, chemical, mechanical or dimensional).
Some of the tests used are: Liquid Penetrant, Magnetic Particles, Ultrasound, among others.
Dimensional inspection – This type of inspection consists of the measurement process of the components, with the aim of analyzing whether they are in the conditions required by the manufacturer. To obtain an accurate diagnosis, we use: caliper, dial indicator, micrometer, measuring tapes, among others. Every effort aims to avoid assembly errors. We can direct the component for repair and correction if we identify points with a large dimensional difference.
Failure Analysis – The process used to identify the source of a component failure.
