Machine Predictive Maintenance Services at ATS
Machine predictive maintenance consists of a variety of testing and analysis methods designed to improve safety, productivity, and efficiency while reducing costs.
Vibration Analysis
Vibration analysis is a highly effective and cost-efficient predictive maintenance method that measures and analyzes machine vibrations to identify irregularities that may indicate the presence of imbalances, bearing faults, or misalignment in machine components. Early detection allows our experts to recommend targeted maintenance strategies to ensure optimal functionality.
Infrared Thermography
Infrared thermography is another valuable component of our predictive maintenance services, detecting irregular heat patterns in machinery through the use of infrared cameras. Abnormal heat signatures can indicate a variety of problems, ranging in severity from lubrication issues to electrical faults. Thermographic inspections allow ATS’ reliability engineering experts to pinpoint these issues before they escalate into serious problems.
Ultrasonic Testing
Ultrasonic testing helps detect high-frequency sounds that are beyond the range of human hearing. These sounds can be a symptom of leaks, electrical discharge, mechanical wear, or a variety of other deficiencies in machinery. Recording these ultrasonic signals allows our engineers to diagnose and address issues early, potentially before their presence could be detected by other testing methods.
Oil Analysis
Oil analysis consists of examining the lubricating oil used in machinery to detect contamination, wear particles, and other indicators of machine health. Regularly scheduled oil analysis helps understand the condition of internal components, yielding data that can help determine the best maintenance actions and frequency based on your equipment’s specific wear conditions rather than fixed intervals. Vibration analysis, infrared thermography, ultrasonic testing, and oil analysis all monitor machine performance to catch issues at an early stage, reducing and preventing unexpected failures while minimizing maintenance, repair, and replacement costs.
