Some of our NCT team took to the tracks as they went go-karting on an after-work social event. The venue presented the team with their best lap times, but as data-driven scientists and engineers, the team asked for the full results
Over the past twelve years, ESR Technology has provided expert witnessing, condition assessment, and monitoring services to a major international ship operator. Following a premature failure of a critical bearing, ESR’s NCT team were brought in to find and solve the problem.
This week, ESR Technology’s National Centre of Tribology (NCT) team had the pleasure of attending the Marine Energy Wales 2024 conference in Swansea. Meeting with some of the minds behind Wales’ and indeed the UK’s world leading innovations in marine renewable energy, the passion and belief of the designers and developers in the future of the Morlais project and Welsh renewable marine energy was palpable.
Identification of fracture mechanisms is a major stage in performing Root Cause Failure Analysis (RCFA). At ESR Technology’s National Centre of Tribology, our team of expert engineers carry out metallurgical failure analysis on a wide range of materials across a variety of industries.
A failure is something as complex as a gas turbine can be daunting to approach. Working in industries as diverse as medical, agri-tech, and off-shore renewables, the equipment we are examining may be something we have never encountered before, but with a systematic approach and our talented team of engineers and scientists, we are almost always able to deliver insight into the root cause.
