The FIAT factory in Melfi produces
250,000 cars per year. FLIR thermal
imaging cameras play an important
part in the predictive maintenance
program. Information obtained
during thermal imaging surveys is
used to predict electrical and
mechanical faults so they can be
fixed before breakdowns occur.

RAITECH Industrial Technologies
is responsible for industrial
maintenance, and its thermography
specialist Aldo Alliata has added
greater value to his thermographic
inspections with FLIR’s Meterlink
connectivity solution. It consists of a
Bluetooth connection between the
thermal imaging
camera and an
Extech
EX845 clamp
meter.

Measurement
data is
automatically
embedded in the
corresponding
radiometric thermal image. This
functionality, says Alliata, improves
the accuracy and speed of the
thermal imaging inspections.
