As indicated in the title, the present invention patent relates to an innovative remote inspection method used for measuring the operational conditions of surface coatings of various types of industrial components and machines routinely inspected visually and/or disassembled for visual inspection, the method aiming at facilitating these operations, without requiring the stoppage of the machines and the disassembly of the assemblies, besides rendering the method faster, by using a measuring device provided with a multilayered mesh provided with sensors and conducting, soft metal wires, the mesh being coupled to a data collector and transmitter which transfers the information by various means. The present remote inspection method for detecting the operational conditions of coatings comprises the electronic reading of the thickness, temperature, vibration, rotation or other relevant data ensuring good operational conditions of the coating layer of various components used in the industry, by means of a device essentially formed by a mesh (1) of conducting, soft metal wires (2) coupled to sensors (3) for reading temperature, vibration, rotation or other data, the wires (2) being directly inserted into the coating (4) and coupled to a data collector (10) that compiles and transmits information to a supervisory data centre (7). |
