Rotating Equipment Sample Videos
Other applications such exchanger tubes, process piping, pressure safety valves, coating inspections, boilers, and process vessels can be found in their own sample reports. See the RVT Applications page.
Maverick RVT Department Summary
Maverick RVT Department Summary
This report contains examples of the effective use of Remote Visual equipment. Although videoscopes have typically been employed for emergency diagnostics of problems, the real cost benefits of this type of inspection are found during scheduled shutdowns. Using the arsenal of RVI equipment now available to determine the necessity for disassembly, cleaning, or entry of plant equipment can streamline maintenance tasks and result in time and money being directed where it is most needed.
Remote Visual Inspection or Testing, also called Video Inspection, involves different sorts of probes, camera systems, scopes, robotics, and other devices to collect images from hard to access areas. Maverick Inspection uses non-contact measurement software, image capture devices, digital recording mediums, built-in line locators, retrieval tools, and other technologies to maximize the abilities of this equipment. We have rated explosion proof and intrinsically safe equipment, specialized tube inspection cameras, robotic pan/tilt/zoom cameras, and a wide range of custom built systems. Maverick owns enough equipment for almost all of the possible applications we come across, without the need to bring in outside equipment. This allows us to react quickly to emergency calls, and we do not have to transfer large rental costs to our clients.
Maverick Inspection pioneered Remote Visual Testing in Western Canada, and we have provided service for more than a decade and gathered a lot of experience. We grew as the demand grew, putting together an array of unique equipment to meet our clients' unique inspection needs. We offer complete inspection services, sales, and rentals of remote visual and equipment from videoscopes to robotics to fiberscopes. Our Remote Visual Department is complemented by Ground Penetrating Radar and Infrared Thermography.

1. Diesel Engine Piston
This video shows surface wear on a diesel engine piston.
Table of Contents
2. Drive Gear Wear
Small diameter videoscopes are excellent tools for looking inside rotating equipment and determining the condition of components such as bearings, pistons, gears, shafts, etc.
Table of Contents
3. Drive Gear Teeth
Video inspection can be used in conjunction with other methods such as oil analysis and vibration analysis to pinpoint problems in rotating equipment. In this video, wear is apparent on the drive gear teeth.
Table of Contents
4. Impregnator Screw Casing
Rotating and mechanical equipment often have difficult to access areas for visual inspection. In this video, a probe is used to examine the internals of an impregnator screw casing.
Table of Contents
5. Rollers and Raceway
Difficult-to-reach areas such as shafts, blades, rollers, bearings, and raceways are often easily accessed visually using a flexible, articulating videoscope.
Table of Contents
6. Gas Turbine Blade Wear
Using video systems to inspect turbine blades for wear or damage is a common application for these probes and scopes. Turbine blade wear is clearly visible in this video.
Table of Contents
7. Gas Turbine Blades Manual Rotation
It is typical to manually rotate blades in a turbine while you inspect each one individually with a remote camera system such as a borescope or videoscope. This video shows that procedure.
Table of Contents
8. Crack on Gear Housing
The resolution and clarity of a videoscope allows for detection and analysis of small features such as cracks or pits.
