As an independent supplier, Rotadata is unique in the field of gas turbine and engine data monitoring technology utilising a variety of turbomachinery instrumentation equipment developed over the last 25 years and can manufacture products and components to customers drawings or offer a full design and make service.
Using the products and equipment we design and manufacture combined with a variety of measurement data acquisition systems we can provide a complete turnkey solution to your engine measurement needs.
The Rotadata services offered include the utilisation of aerofoil instrumentation, aero-thermal rakes and probes, blade tip grind measurement systems, optical pyrometers, digital telemetry systems, experimental engine part development rigs, gas analysis traverse systems, high temperature instrumentation and strain gauging, non intrusive stress measurement (tip timing) equipment, optical smoke meters, radial/yaw, tangential and circumferential probe traverse systems, blade tip clearance and gap measurement, ultrasonic and eddy current aero engine inspection kits and wind tunnel scale models and actuated systems in various measurement system combinations.
Using the highest standard of craftsmanship, advanced metal cutting machinery and long experience allows Rotadata to offer a full range of customised services to aero-engine and ground based engine builders.
Accurate, reliable and measured results repeatability of engine static and dynamic operating parameters in the most inaccessible and hostile regions of a gas turbine, compressor or automobile engine requires ingenuity, skill, experience and considerable resource. We operate in international markets and provide a cost effective and timely solution to the specialised problems encountered by our customers.
We recognise the paramount importance of Quality Control and operate Quality Plans for our products and services in accordance with all the recognised National and International Standards within our sphere of supply.
