Infrared Mechanical Testing Applications - PdM, NDT
Infrared nondestructive testing and evaluation mechanical certificate course.
The online course, "Infrared Inspections in Mechanical Testing," is 16 hours long. It covers thermal imaging theory and application. It teaches how to find and evaluate problems in mechanical systems. This course focuses on one application. It supplements the standard thermographer certification training.
This course covers infrared theory, heat transfer, and equipment use. It includes standards compliance, thermal imaging analysis, and report writing. The student learns to find and record thermal patterns. These patterns result from poor design, quality, or mechanical failure.
The IR course uses self-directed activities to give students practical experience. You do not need an infrared camera to pass the course. This online infrared certificate course covers mechanical testing applications and active thermography. It also covers infrared thermography for mechanical applications. These include nondestructive testing (NDT) and predictive maintenance (PdM) using thermography.
| This online thermography course trains you to use infrared thermography and thermographic surveys to identify mechanical overheating in things like gearboxes, pumps and fans, bearings, seals, shaft couplings, drive belts, compressors, steam traps, refractory and tank levels, heat exchangers and other motor driven rotating equipment that are essential to manufacturing, commercial and institutional enterprise. Infrared thermography for mechanical nondestructive testing and evaluation is very cost-effective, from fluid handling systems in petrochemical plants to large HVAC systems in shopping malls, and should be a part of everyone's predictive maintenance training. Prerequisite: None |

Testimonials:
"I feel like the instructors made the training so easy to understand. It was like carrying on a conversation." Barry Deaton - Nissan Motor Corp.
"I have been through training courses for almost every area of NDT and this course was the best I’ve ever taken. The staff is professional, well informed and well prepared. They’ve done their homework and present information in a most practical manner. A “must take” course for anybody in the business." Carl Gustafson - Amoco Oil Company
"After the course, I presented management with a conservative cost avoidance for a 6-month period that exceeded $880,000." Bill Schafer - National Starch & Chemical
"One-of-a-kind training such as this is not available elsewhere. Years and years of work, research, and hands-on have put together a viable educational package worth every cent!" Ken Overstreet - Lockheed Martin
"I have obtained training online in the past and this course was presented more clearly than any other online training I have taken. Navigation made reviewing easy. I was extremely pleased with my distance learning experience." Ron Sangiancomo - Risk Management Solutions
