At the recent API Summit in San Antonio, we had the pleasure of speaking with Buddy Lemann from QSA Global, a leader in isotope projector manufacturing and x-ray inspection technologies. With a focus on pipeline industry applications, QSA Global is at the forefront of innovations in weld inspection and corrosion detection under insulation.
Innovative Products for Efficient Inspections
QSA Global’s latest offering is the OpenVision HD model, a real-time live video x-ray system. This product represents a leap forward in non-invasive inspection methods, allowing technicians to see through insulation and identify corrosion and pitting without stripping the insulation off.
Developing Solutions for Industry Needs
Buddy explained that QSA Global’s approach to product development is often driven by specific client requests, highlighting their commitment to solving real-world challenges. The company’s acquisition of another firm that invented the OpenVision device exemplifies their strategy to integrate customer feedback into their innovation pipeline.
Saving Time and Money for Clients
Using QSA Global’s products results in significant time and monetary savings for their clients. The efficiency of their inspection technologies reduces the need for labor-intensive methods, leading to quicker, more cost-effective inspection processes.
Demonstrating the OpenVision HD Model
During the interview, Buddy demonstrated the OpenVision HD model, showcasing how it operates with an x-ray tube and an imager to scan insulation on pipes. The device provides real-time imaging and data storage, which can be exported for analysis and reporting.
Global Reach of QSA Global’s Technologies
QSA Global’s technologies are used globally, with the OpenVision system initially designed for use in Alaska but now sold worldwide. This underscores the universal applicability and demand for their innovative inspection solutions.
