on-site bearing failure analysis

At Applied Technical Services, our Reliability Services division performs on-site bearing failure analysis for numerous industries and companies to identify what damage mechanisms, human error classifications, and system deficiencies contributing to it.

Our testing procedures encompass both in-the-field visual examination and our advanced lab services such as metallography, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), hardness testing, and chemical analysis. In addition to our thorough testing services, we achieve precise reporting and results with our recognized quality assurance program.

To ensure reliable findings, ATS consultants follow standard specifications to identify the most effective means of inspecting failed components, determine the root cause of the failure, and ensure a return to safe and reliable operation.  Our process meets the criteria for conducting on-site bearing failure analysis through standard practices and analysis of component failures along with other applicable, specialized methods. ATS’ standards-focused approach to inspections and testing positions us as the foremost provider of on-site bearing failure analysis services.
