MSI uses advanced computational and field-testing tools to evaluate equipment behavior, identify root causes, and support defensible technical opinions.

William D. Marscher provides expert witnessing and engineering support in fluid systems and rotating and reciprocating machinery, including turbines, generators, compressors, and pumps. His experience includes technical reports, depositions, tribunal appearances, and Federal Court testimony.
Decades of practical engineering work with complex machinery systems.
Experience from real-world testing, diagnostics, and failure investigations.
High-end computational analysis and sophisticated instrumentation.
Technical findings translated into reports, testimony, and legal support materials.
MSI consultants solve difficult or urgent problems of vibration in machinery, taking into account the performance process parameters in critical rotating machinery and systems. MSI’s right-first-time, high-value solutions and clear reports are based on a 30-year track record of reliably solving the problem.
