General Information

Pfizer Biotechnology needed to perform various leak detections and valve inspections, mainly for compressed air, gas, steam, and vacuum leaks. They needed a fast, reliable and easy-to-use acoustic leak detector to be able to detect leaks in valves, lined and pipes in the plant area, and they needed to do it quickly because if not, ...

If industrial machines need to be extra quiet, the use of acoustic cameras can provide the needed support. Machines that work with aluminum are in an acoustic world of their own. For instance, the cavities in the aluminum profiles sometimes increase vibrations in a unique way: the generated sounds are clearly audible, but it is ...

Finding the exact source of disruptive noise in buildings can be very difficult. That’s why, building acoustic experts and construction engineers are getting help from acoustic cameras. In fact, sound is a deceiver! Although, it is simple for human beings to perceive it, it’s really hard to pinpoint its exact origin. In other words, the ...

CSH or Coherence Scanning Holography is a patented method which is developed by Seven Bel. In Seven Bel acoustic cameras which are named as “Sound Scanner“, sound imaging is done based on audio data captured with moving microphones. This novel method is fundamentally different than the method of beamforming which is used in conventional acoustic ...

The stand-alone NL Acoustics PL001 Industrial Ultrasonic Camera is an intelligent device for pinpointing partial discharge in high voltage and medium voltage systems, and air leaks in compressed air system (using acoustic beamforming method). What is Acoustic Beamforming? Acoustic beamforming is a technique for measuring sound spatially from a specific direction instead of measuring all the sounds ...

All the companies desire to provide customers with the best products. Having said that, they must comply with legal requirements, and keep an eye on employee health as well. However, disturbing noise on company premises and products pose an obstacle in trying to achieve so. How can we prevent this? Noise reduction and noise protection ...

During the Winter Olympics which was held in Beijing in 2022, the spotlight was constantly on the athletes and their exceptional performances. People from all over the world were watching the competitions either television or the Internet. Other than sporting achievements, the spectators would also appreciated when the commentators provided some clearly understandable and interesting ...

The Bulgarian copper producer Aurubis has used the SPM HD Shock Pulse Monitoring to monitor the pinion shaft bearing of a critical autogenous mill in the flotation plant. Online Bearing Monitoring of Autogenous Mill Using SPM HD technology The engineers installed one SPM Intellinova Compact Condition Monitoring Online System; and the device indicated rising shock ...

There are several critical applications in mining operations that may cause serious disruptions ( in case of malfunctions) in the production process. And, jaw crusher is an example. Engineers carried out test measurements for 4 months on a jaw crusher in the Boliden Renström underground mine in Sweden. This heavy-duty jaw crusher which’s located at ...

ND Testaus is Finnish company that carries out diverse leak audits and valve inspections that detect steam, gas, compressed air and vacuum leaks. ND Testaus has an extensive range of clients including production plants, hospitals and various factories. The Problem ND Testaus needed a user-friendly yet reliable ultrasonic leak detector to be able to find ...

Ortviken Paper Mill owned by SCA and located in Sweden is equipped with four paper machines. It has an annual production capacity of 850.000 tons in producing publication papers, LWC and newsprint. Ortviken has used SPM HD Technologies for Condition Monitoring for solving bearing-related breakdowns on low-RPM machinery like the twin wire presses (used for ...

Savage is (an energy service provider) located in Amarillo, Texas, USA has installed SPM online condition monitoring system on a coal-conveyor to eliminate concern of equipment failure; and therefore ensure uninterrupted and safe supply of fuel to Xcel Energy’s Harrington Generating Station. Bearing Monitoring Keeps Coal Safely on the Move The only damage which conveyor ...
