Learn MoreFoil bearings offer performance & efficiency unmatched by conventional bearings for high-speed, oil-free turbomachinery systems.
Learn MoreMSI reliably resolves vibration & dynamics problems in rotating machinery using customized engineering and vibration testing services, products and nimble specialist teams. Some rotating equipment MSI has worked with are: centrifugal pumps, steam turbines, aeroderivative gas turbines, centrifugal compressors, fans, blowers, generators, etc.
Field Testing and TroubleshootingMSI vibration tests prevents problems, confirms and characterizes performance, machine life expectancy and validates computer simulations. Main tools used for MSI's specialized vibration testing includes: accelerometers, proximity probes, shaft and pipe strain gauges via telemetry systems, i.e. torque gauge to measure power, pitot tubes to measure swirl flow entering a pump, dynamic pressure transducers to detail pipe acoustic and pipe resonance to measure pressure pulsations etc.
Custom, Extensive TestingMSI product development services incorporate centuries of cumulative machinery knowledge and experience developing hardware and software solutions for customers.
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 25-year track record of reliably solving the problem.
