Our digital gear inspection method enables efficient gear inspections with outstanding accuracy when compared to the use of conventional methods with up to 60% less downtime due to quicker inspections

Scanning process

Digital gear inspections utilize advanced electromagnetic technology to scan and record the gear tooth condition faster and with more accuracy than any other method available.

100% of a vast area is covered within a single scan producing a digital footprint in high resolution to achieve accurate data on every defect of the girth gear with minimal valuable downtime.

Inspections are simpler and safer for hard-to-reach areas which is a major improvement from conventional methods.

The scan patterns are analyzed to create a digital report providing insight for the maintenance team and accurate component replacement forecasts.

Scans are automatically recorded and saved for future trending, comparisons and analysis. No consumables are required for the inspection and less preparation for test material is needed.
