Industries We Serve
Chemical
Strict requirements exist for equipment housed in explosive areas such as chemical plants because the materials and fuels produced in them are typically very sensitive. Process assurance is critical because failure in any of the following components can result in production losses costing millions:
∙ Blower
∙ Centrifuge
∙ Compressor
∙ Mixer
∙ Pump
∙ Separator
∙ Turbine
IVC Technologies increases worker safety in chemical processing, handling and production facilities by optimizing your equipment and preventing failures.

Metals
Whether monitoring the temperature and pressure of riveters and stampers, to monitoring the humidity level inside the plant itself, any inconsistency in the manufacturing process line can result in overworked equipment, substandard products, and costly unplanned downtime.
IVC’s advanced condition monitoring services maintain high-quality, efficiency and productivity by keeping manufacturing machines and equipment in top operating condition. In addition, if any issues or irregularities are discovered, they can be quickly addressed before they lead to serious problems.

Paper
The production of paper is a very complex process. Paper machines need to be adjusted to the exact measurements of the paper type. During the production process, paper goes through numerous steps:
• Wire section
• Press section
• Dryer section
• Smoothing calender
• Coating machine
• Calender
• Roll cutter
Whether the machines run fast or slow, wide or narrow, IVC condition monitoring services ensure that the paper manufacturing process is as efficient and profitable as possible.

Power & Utilities
Failure of a primary power source not only has direct consequences locally but can also affect the stability of an entire infrastructure.
The monitoring of power plant machinery varies. For safety reasons, turbines are protected by a machine safety system. Depending on their importance in the power generation process, primary and secondary components are monitored by either an online condition monitoring system or examined with a portable data collector as part of regular inspections.
IVC’s comprehensive condition based monitoring services allow for corrective actions, such as shaft alignment and/or balancing, to be executed in a timely, cost-effective manner.
Pharma
The pharmaceutical industry depends on production systems that operate at peak efficiency for extended periods of time, with minimal maintenance. Effective air handling is crucial and requires machinery that can stabilize air conditions with precise limits with no abrupt changes to air flow rate, temperature or humidity. Achieving this requires machines that are correctly specified, maintained and operated.
IVC can provide solutions for both online and offline monitoring. Our industrial accelerometers and vibration sensors are designed for use in the toughest environments, including hazardous areas, reducing the potential for a degradation in air standards and lost production.

Construction
IVC Technologies provides professional remote and on-site vibration monitoring services to the construction industry. Many local, state and federal regulations require vibration and acoustic noise monitoring at construction sites. As part of our comprehensive vibration monitoring services, we are able to guide our clients through these laws and codes, assess their specific needs and create a customized vibration monitoring plan.
IVC is also able to set up monitoring equipment for commercial property owners to protect them from incurring damage from significant levels of ground-borne vibration when an aggressive construction or demolition project is planned nearby.
