3D scanner
| Usage | Technical description |
|---|---|
| Faro Focus S70 3D scanner is used for large-scale projects where complex equipment must be installed in confined spaces. A precise 3D scan of the area allows for high accurate placement of equipment during the design phase, ensuring optimal results. The resulting 3D model also simplifies future modifications and add-ons. | Faro Focus S70 is a laser scanner with a range of up to 70 meters and ±1 mm accuracy within 10 meters. The same space is scanned from multiple angles to create a comprehensive 3D view. The data is imported into Faro Scene software, which generates a 3D model that is then transferred into design software. Integrated high-resolution camera captures surface textures and colors, producing a realistic and detailed visual representation of the scanned environment. |
Flexible borescope with video recording
| Usage | Technical description |
|---|---|
| Videoscope with a flexible arm is used to inspect the condition of equipment and mechanical systems in areas that are otherwise inaccessible — for example, the interior of cylinders. The tip can be remotely controlled using a joystick, allowing full 360-degree viewing capability. | The Olympus IPLEX G is a high-performance videoscope featuring a 2-meter-long flexible probe with a diameter of just 4 mm. At the tip is a camera with 5x zoom, integrated LED lighting, and a microphone for audio recording. The probe’s distal end can be articulated in all directions using a joystick control on the device. It features a 4.3-inch touchscreen, HD video resolution (765×576), and an HDMI output for real-time monitoring on a tablet. The system supports video recording to an SD card and allows for still image capture during inspections. |
Laser alignment tool
| Laser alignment tool |
|---|
| The most precise measurement system available on the market, featuring wireless sensors connected to the measurement computer. Offset: 0,5 micron(<0,15%), Angular: 0,007mm(<0,75%). Wireless sensors have a range of 30 meters. |
Vibration sensor
| Vibration sensor | Balancing |
|---|---|
| The Betavib Collector Analyzer is the fastest 3-axis vibration measurement system on the market. It features a built-in bearing frequency database and stores historical measurement data for trend analysis. The system also provides warning thresholds. | Offers on-site balancing, allowing machinery to be balanced without removal or transport to a workshop. Reduces a lof of time and cost. |

Each jack is equipped with a pressure gauge to monitor the load and ensures precision. |
Manifold for Four Jacks. Héðinn offers a range of jacks from 10 to 60 tons, as well as two 100-ton jacks. |
Force gauge / scale
| Usage | Technical description |
|---|---|
| Force Gauge (Scale) up to 50 Tons with Wireless Readout. | Wireless readout, USB connectivity for data download, and displays accumulated force/weight, indicates overload conditions at 110% of rated capacity and offers accuracy of ±0.2% of full scale. |
High-pressure equipment for oil flotation systems
| Usage | Technical description |
|---|---|
| High-pressure oil injection for mounting and dismounting bearings, gears, rudders, and various other components. | High-pressure pump, connecting equipment, and jacks for dismounting or mounting. |
Cylinder Pressure Indicator
| Usage | Technical description |
|---|---|
| Measures combustion pressure in main and auxiliary engines, regardless of fuel type. Generates a graph that clearly shows whether engine timing is correct as well as pressure differences between cylinders. Enables improved engine performance and reduced operating costs. | Connects to indicator valve and measures combustion pressure. Operates on the same fundamental principles as compression testing in automotive engines. Results can be downloaded to a computer. |
Strobe light
| Usage | Technical description |
|---|---|
| Strobe light with adjustable frequency makes moving engine components appear stationary, enabling easier visual inspection. | Flash Frequency from 30 to 300,000 per minute, with an accuracy of ±1 flashes per minute or ±0.01% of the reading, whichever is greater. External sensor for measuring rotational speed. LCD monitor, and ten stored measurements records. |
Honing machine
| Usage | Technical description |
|---|---|
| Precision surface finishing of liners (cylinders) to ensure lubricating oil adhesion. | The equipment can be used both on-site, where the engine is located, and in a workshop. Suitable for cylinders with diameters ranging from 150 to 600 mm. |
Ultrasonic cleaning of metal and mechanical components.
| Usage | Technical description |
|---|---|
| Water, soap, and powerful ultrasonic waves break down tough and hard-to-reach dirt in engine components, including deposits in cooling systems and intercoolers. | The washing tank measures 160 cm in length, 80 cm in width, and 80 cm in depth. |
Injector test pump
| Usage | Technical description |
|---|---|
| Comprehensive testing of most standard fuel injectors (nozzles). | Leak testing and pressure testing, operational testing. |
Bending gauge
| Usage | Technical description |
|---|---|
| Bending measurements performed on crankshafts, for example before and after dry-docking. A simple and quick method for monitoring and assessing engine condition. | Measurement accuracy: 0.001 mm. Measuring range: 60–574 mm. Digital results. |
