Portable acoustic camera

Non-contact diagnostics of equipment without having to stop it in a portable version allows you to control and monitor the technical condition of mechanical equipment during periodic inspections of a group of equipment.

Application method:

  • Collection of primary data: recording container files within 1 minute according to the schedule
  • Formation of presets: application of filtering for a specific type of equipment
  • Using a camera to monitor the dynamics of changes in equipment operation

As a result of the introduction of sound visualization technology, the NLMK Group division changed its approach to maintenance, replacing the method of planned preventive maintenance (PPR) with repairs based on condition, which allowed reduce emergency downtime to zero due to breakdown of the workshop pneumatic systems and bearings of rotating mechanisms.
