The Importance of Equipment in Diagnostic Engineering
In the area of Diagnostic Engineering, equipment plays a crucial role in the accurate identification and efficient resolution of problems. From measuring instruments to advanced imaging technologies, these devices enable engineers to detect and analyze a variety of issues in structures, systems and equipment.
Importance of Equipment:
Accuracy and Confidence: The equipment provides accurate measurements and data, allowing engineers to confidently assess the condition of a structure or system. This is essential for informed decision-making and the implementation of effective solutions.
Efficiency in Problem Identification: With the help of specialized devices, engineers can detect hidden problems that would otherwise be difficult to identify. This helps to avoid unexpected failures and minimize associated risks.
Resource Optimization: By using appropriate equipment, engineers can optimize the use of resources, whether diagnosing faults in equipment, systems or inspecting civil structures. This leads to better resource allocation and cost savings in the long term.
Practical Cases:
Thermography for Identification of Leakage and Visualization of Structural Elements: When there is an infiltration, for example, in the wall, the affected area tends to have a different temperature from the surrounding area, due to the presence of concentrated humidity in the area. This can be captured by the thermal camera, indicating the presence of infiltration. In the case of structures, the detection of beams, pillars and blocks is also possible thanks to the difference in thermal conductivity of the elements, these differences being captured by the thermographic camera.
Inspection using a Borescope: The Borescope aims to carry out visual inspections in difficult to access places, such as pipes, ducts, etc. It consists of a flexible or rigid probe, equipped with a camera at the end, which transmits images in real time to an external monitor. This allows the operator to view and record videos or take photographs of the inside of pipes or other confined spaces, without the need for breakouts.
Aerial Inspection with Drone: Aerial drone inspection provides safe and cost-effective access to hard-to-reach areas such as roofs and elevated structures. Drones, capable of capturing high-resolution images and detailed data, allow for accurate and rapid analysis of the conditions of structures. Real-time remote monitoring facilitates agile decision-making, contributing to the reduction of downtime and the proactive implementation of corrective measures.
