Our innovative measurement system allows for vibration measurements to be taken of whole-body vibration exposure according to ISO 2631. Its autonomous sensors that do not need to be wired during measurements and automated artefact detection provide for a user-friendly implementation and use (can be used by non-experts). Stored data is downloaded from the sensor(s) at the end of the working period to a smartphone or a PC using a Bluetooth connection. The software allows for the automatic computation and display of workers’ exposure to whole-body vibrations and indicates how such exposure compares with the limit and action values defined in the vibration Directive. The set of whole-body vibration meters (Vib@Work Seat, Vib@Work Floor & Vib@Work Detect) can measure the vibration exposure of either seated or standing operators. In addition, when used in conjunction, seat efficiency can also be measured (i.e. S.E.A.T. factors).

TYPICAL USE Install your monitoring devices anywhere Manage your monitoring device anywhere Access your data from anywhere Alert, report visualization tools FEATURES MONITOR Devices can be located anywhere and connected to the RECOVIB.io platform through a wired Ethernet link or through the mobile wireless network (global coverage). Each MONITOR is factory-configured with a connection key that allows for secured device identification on the recovib.io platform and communication encryption. The MONITOR embedded software automatically takes care of re-transmissions and device re-connections in the event of a poor quality communication link or connection loss to the RECOVIB.IO platform – allowing for a high quality of service even from remote and unattended locations. Monitoring Devices status, connectivity and configuration can be managed remotely making deployment and installation a seamless operation.

Detecting mechanical faults before they stop production Bearing and Machine Maintenance Industry runs on machinery. Bearings, pumps, electric motors, compressors, presses, gearboxes and much more. All of which can break unexpectedly, causing production to stop. When production stops your organization loses money. Few bearings make it to the end of their engineered lifecycle. This is due to poor workmanship, bad lubrication practices and neglect. Problems can even arise right after installation due poor installment of the machine. No two machines are the same. Across industry, machines operate under different loads, climates and conditions, making their maintenance requirements unpredictable. Many machines are still maintained on calendar based PM’s, while others are run-to-failure. Both strategies are wasteful.

SDT was the first to pioneer on ultrasound-based hatch cover weathertightness testing on board of ships back in the late 1980s. Together with MacGregor, Lloyds Register of Shipping and IMCS, SDT was able to put ultrasound testing of hatch covers on the world map and make it the preferred method for testing hatch covers by charterers, shippers, P&I insurers and stakeholders in the marine industry. Another first position for SDT is that further development of the tightness testing equipment resulted in SDT launching the world’s first Class type approved and bespoke SHERLOG product range in 2000. Ever since, the SDT SHERLOG equipment became a symbol of reliable and professional hatch cover testing. As no solution is complete without training, SDT & IMCS developed the first and only training course for ultrasound testing of hatch covers in line with the IACS UR Z17 criteria.
