Our Expertise

Our experience spans almost every service in condition monitoring and diagnosis, and we’ve worked with a diverse range of clients. Ocean Technical and Mechanical Services LLC reliability engineering services have always been of the highest quality. Some of the services we provide for condition monitoring are as follows:

  • Vibration Analysis
  • Dynamic Field Balancing
  • Laser Shaft Alignment
  • Ultrasound Analysis
  • Infrared Thermography Services

Vibration analysis

Vibration analysis is a non-destructive Condition Monitoring technique that analyses the vibrations caused by a device and can be used to detect faults within a computer. The vibration signatures provide an installation that can be monitored and analysed to determine the system’s health. Vibration testing and diagnosis can aid in detecting repairable and recurrent issues that can arise as a result of mechanical, electrical, or operational irregularities. If there are some unnecessary movements, Ocean Technical and Mechanical Services LLC uses the Rotor Balancing technique.

We have many fleets of proven instruments, parts, and techniques for performing rotating machinery vibration inspections on-site. We have online tracking systems that can be linked and tracked for a more extended period in cases like cooling tower monitoring, and then the collected data will be analysed.

Dynamic Field Balancing​

Rotating equipment may be unbalanced for various causes, including rotor corrosion, worn bearings or seals, and poorly balanced rotors in the store. During operations, such imbalances may occur, causing severe damage to the system. Dynamic balancing, one of Ocean Technical and Mechanical Services LLC’s condition monitoring services, will help minimise this costly damage by calculating rotor imbalance and fixing it without dismantling them every time. Based on your specifications, our qualified engineers will complete the work for you. To ensure that the installations run smoothly, we perform valve testing, steam trap testing, and pump inspections.

Benefits of Dynamic Field Balancing Services:

  • Reduced transportation, labour, and downtime costs.
  • Energy and maintenance costs are kept to a minimum.
  • Since there is less noise vibration, there is less structural tension.
  • Running conditions have improved.

Laser Shaft Alignment

Two or more rotating shafts may often become misaligned, resulting in significant production inefficiency. Misalignment of the shaft may result in an increase in energy consumption and a reduction in production. Ocean Technical and Mechanical Services LLC’s Laser Shaft Alignment service for industrial equipment is one of the condition monitoring services that align with rotating shafts in a co-linear manner. Proper Laser Shaft Alignment leads to increased performance and uptime, lower operating costs, and longer system life expectancy.
