Services
At MCI, we have many years of experience with problems in mechanical engineering systems, process technology and manufacturing techniques of installations and their components. We understand better than anyone that the smallest details can have a big impact on your assets.
Getting maximum integrity from your assets
Prevention of Problems
Many problems arise from:
- Wrong choice of material
- Improper detail engineering
- Marginal welding or assembly design
- Insecure use of the installation
These failures are often a result from a lack of relevant knowledge about possible failure mechanisms.
This plays a role from the design phase of your installation to the operation and maintenance of your installation.
These problems can lead to premature fatigue, wear, breakage or corrosion, resulting in costly downtime and potentially dangerous situations.
Failure Mechanism Analysis
We are specialists in failure mechanisms and combine multidisciplinary insights from different fields of knowledge:
- Mechanical Engineering
- Materials Science
- Corrosion and fracture mechanics
- Maintenance and inspection
- Process technology and manufacturing techniques
- Destructive and non-destructive investigation methods
These areas of expertise allow us to answer the crucial Fitness For Service question.
Is your asset Really Fit for service?
Your supplier builds the system you purchased, but is it really suitable in every detail for your application?
MCI investigates this for you and adds the missing knowledge that your supplier may suffer or not applying due to other interests.
Because of this:
- You become more reliable equipment
- Extend the life of your installation
- Lowers your Total Cost of Ownership significantly
Preventive application of Knowledge for Better Decisions
Our extensive failuremechanism knowledge, accumulated through years of failure-investigations in various industries – often deployed only when it was too late – we can now apply for you in the procurement and engineering phases. This prevents problems in the production phase and ensures higher reliability and safety of your equipment.
