What is Thermography?
Water and composite materials have different thermal properties. When out of thermal balance (equilibrium), after a heating or cooling process, a temperature difference is observed between water and composite. An infrared camera enables the temperature distribution on the inspection surface to be observed.

Advantages of Thermography
It shows a visual picture so temperatures over a large area can be compared
It is capable of catching moving targets in real time
It is able to find deteriorating (i.e. at higher temperature) components prior to their failure
It can be used to measure or observe in areas inaccessible or hazardous for other methods
It is a non-destructive test method
It can be used to find defects in shafts and other metal parts -53,8°C

Other examples of Thermography
Door area heaters and heated blankets
Detecting moisture in Landing gear doors and Thrust Reversers
Identifying electrical components or wiring that are “powered”
Identifying “hot spots” in electrical components
Overheated or bypassing hydraulic components

Themselves or outsourcing?
Themselves:
Advantages:
-Preparation and inspection will be done by yourselves
Disadvantages:
- Acquisition of the correct infrared camera
- All users needs to have the correct education / training
- Every year: calibration of the camera
- No experience

Themselves or outsourcing?
Outsourcing:
Advantages:
- No charges for the acquisition of the camera, education and calibration of camera
- Directly after the inspection you receive a professional report
- Experience in thermography during the last 12 years
Disadvantages:
- Subordinated to another company which should do the inspection
