The Applied Technical Services Family of Companies (FoC) offers turbine inspection services that evaluate the health and performance of gas and steam turbines. Turbines are the driving force behind many industrial operations and facilities, especially those in the manufacturing, aviation, and oil and gas industries. Turbines are a major investment for an operation, and like all equipment, turbines require an occasional inspection to ensure they’re operating at full capacity. Fortunately, our accredited inspection lab possesses the necessary credentials, staff, and technology to conduct comprehensive inspections that safeguard turbines and maintain operational efficiency.
What are Gas Turbines and Steam Turbines?
A gas turbine is an internal combustion engine that converts gas into mechanical energy. Gas turbines typically consist of three main components: a compressor, a combustion chamber, and a turbine, all of which enable the turbine to convert generated energy into electricity or allow the energy to create rotational power for mechanical systems. Gas turbines offer high energy efficiency, minimal thermal waste, and extreme versatility, making them a popular choice for power generation.
A steam turbine is a heat engine that converts the thermal energy extracted from pressurized steam into mechanical energy.

The Benefits of Turbine Inspections
Turbine inspections provide turbine owners and operators with the opportunity to identify and address potential issues with their turbines before they escalate and worsen. Early detection is adept at addressing issues before they require very expensive repairs, delay operations, or cause operational inefficiencies.
