High return on investment

The TKTI 21 and TKTI 31 thermal cameras from SKF can be used in multiple applications to spot the unusual heat patterns that indicate machine problems, enabling prompt preventative maintenance to reduce production losses due to unplanned downtime.

By helping to increase plant availability and reliability SKF says the thermal cameras will realise a high return on investment when used as a part of a proactive maintenance programme.

With a 380×280 pixel detector, the TKTI 31 is said to have a lower cost than most other brands that offer a standard 320×240 detector. Meanwhile, the TK21 is 40% cheaper than its predecessor, theTKTI20.
