(Invisual E: Toronto) -- In the modern world of tube and pipe manufacturing, success depends upon producing the right product for the lowest cost. New innovations regularly receive attention when they can increase a facility’s productivity and efficiency. Cutting-edge techniques have started to streamline a market that once required tedious and time-consuming efforts to ensure quality.

Tube suppliers understand the importance of efficiency, so quality is paramount for mills to be profitable.

A thermal inspection system measures the heat radiation coming from a weld seam. This data transfers into the software layer to convert the thermal data into a visual representation and calculated parameters. These parameters are then used to identify potential problems in the weld and improper mechanical setup.
