What is Infrared Thermography Testing?
Thermography testing is the process of testing components using an infrared camera to look for abnormally hot or cold areas operating under normal conditions. It is a viable non-destructive evaluation technique for the characterization of corrosion in metallic materials and is the simplest of all thermal inspection techniques.
In addition, it can be used to check for fouling or internal plugging of piping systems and to check the quality of refractory linings. It can also be used for leak detection, composition changes, and disbonds in laminates. Using thermography, the temperature of objects can be made visible.

Applications of Infrared Thermography Testing at Technomax
Technomax utilises thermal imaging to detect a variety of fault conditions before they become a catastrophic concern to people and property. The infrared thermography (IRT) inspections we offer are beneficial for various fields including, but not limited to:
- Electrical Systems: IRT assists in finding faulty electrical or overloaded circuits in various electrical systems.
- Mechanical Systems: Bearing failures, improper belt tension, misalignment of coupled equipment, abnormal warm motors, etc., in mechanical equipment can be detected by thermal imaging.
- Fluid Systems: Faults like line blockages, tank levels and pipe or fluid temperatures can be identified at the earliest stage.
- Construction: Building diagnostics leverages thermal imaging to identify insulation defects, moisture problems, plumbing flaws, air leakage, etc.
- Low-Slope Roofs: IR thermography aids in monitoring roof conditions and detecting wet roof insulation.
There are numerous applications for Infrared thermography testing:
1. Test and Measurement
The use of infrared cameras, infrared thermometers, pyrometers, etc. has been extensively used by research scholars to measure the temperature of individual particles in coal combustion reactors, to initiate an endeavor to understand the transient phenomenon behind combusting particles.
2. Injection Molding
To measure the temperature of the surface of the distribution products, the thermal imager is used through an online system.
3. Manufacturing
In the metal manufacturing industry, it is crucial to monitor the temperature of the molten metals to ensure that the process temperature is adequately maintained at the casting level.
4. Condition Monitoring
To maintain the overall health of the equipment and avoid any sudden damage or disruption in the production process, a thermal imaging camera is the most coveted technology for condition monitoring services. It can be used to detect catastrophic failure of the equipment or manufacturing process. It is also a cost effective method.

Case Study: Infrared Thermography Testing
Any object with a temperature above −273.15 degrees Celsius (absolute zero or 0 kelvin) emits thermal infrared energy, which is undetectable by the human eye. Technomax’s thermal imaging technique uses advanced thermal image scanners to detect and display these infrared wavelengths regardless of visible illumination. An abnormal temperature pattern typically precedes equipment failures, corroded electrical connections, damaged components, etc. Our trained and experienced thermographers can easily monitor the thermal performance and localise the flaws and faulty conditions in equipment and industrial processes under normal operating conditions by analysing the thermograms.
