Theory and Practice of Active Thermography Lecture
The purpose of the Theory and Practice of Active Thermography Online lecture is to introduce students to the basics of active thermography, discuss the research and technological application possibilities of the method, draw attention to real limitations and the required measurement (environmental) conditions. The lecture details the physical and metrological foundations through which active thermography can be applied for non-destructive material testing purposes.
About Us: We started our professional activities in 1993, and since 1997, under the name PIM, we have been providing our clients with a wide range of industrial measurement equipment, various sensors, rotating machinery diagnostic systems, machine alignment, as well as thermography equipment. In addition to product distribution, we offer industrial measurements, machine diagnostic expertise, laser machine alignment, dynamic balancing, instrument development, installation of complete systems, instrument and sensor calibration, and thermography services. Building on decades of experience, we have been offering professional training courses related to machine diagnostics, machine alignment, and thermography for nearly two decades, which have been attended by thousands. In the future, we will offer professional online lectures to those interested. We carefully select our product range based on the needs of our clients from an engineering perspective. We make sure to only distribute products whose capabilities we have verified through our services, meaning we only offer instruments and technologies that have proven themselves in practice. We place great emphasis on providing our products to customers at favorable prices, in user-friendly, Hungarian-language versions. This includes theoretical lectures, practical demonstrations, Hungarian-language product presentations, user manuals, handbooks, and the provision of computer and instrument software. Furthermore, we strive to better tailor our products to domestic needs through our own developments and in-house manufactured products.
