Industry Segments We Serve

Automotive and Auto-Ancillary Manufacturing

Indore is the gateway to Pithampur, often called the 'Detroit of India', which houses massive manufacturing plants for commercial vehicles and auto components. In this sector, thermal imaging is not a luxury; it is a manufacturing necessity. From monitoring the die-casting temperatures of engine blocks to verifying the curing heat in paint booths, thermal precision dictates product quality. Vega Calibrations services this sector by ensuring that the thermal cameras used to detect overheating in robotic welding arms or friction in conveyor systems are reading accurately. A drift of even 2°C in a heat-treatment furnace, undetected due to a faulty thermal camera, can weaken the structural integrity of a chassis, leading to massive recalls. Our calibration services in the Dhar and Pithampur region ensure that Tier-1 suppliers meet the stringent thermal auditing requirements of OEMs.

Pharmaceutical and Biotechnology

The pharmaceutical corridor along Sanwer Road Industrial Area and the SEZs near Pithampur relies heavily on thermal validation. In this industry, thermal imaging is used to validate the integrity of sterilization tunnels and to detect insulation breaches in cold storage rooms. If a thermal camera used to scan a lyophilizer (freeze dryer) is inaccurate, it may miss "cold spots" where dangerous moisture remains, potentially ruining high-value batches of vaccines or injectables. Vega Calibrations provides the critical NABL-traceable certificates required by FDA and CDSCO auditors. We calibrate the cameras that monitor the HVAC systems of cleanrooms in Dewas, ensuring that the environmental control systems are functioning without thermal leaks, thereby protecting the sterile integrity of the manufacturing environment.

Electrical Power Distribution and Utilities

For the power grids and sub-stations scattered across Rau and Vijay Nagar, thermal imaging is the primary line of defense against blackouts. Utility companies and facility managers use thermal cameras to scan transformers, switchgear, and high-tension cable joints for "hot spots"—early signs of resistance and potential failure. However, a thermal camera with a drifted sensor might show a critical 90°C cable joint as a safe 60°C, leading to missed maintenance and eventual fire hazards. Vega Calibrations ensures that the tools used by electrical maintenance teams in Palda and Laxmi Bai Nagar are calibrated to detect these subtle temperature rises accurately. Our services support the electrical safety infrastructure of the city, helping industries avoid costly unplanned downtime caused by electrical fires.

Food Processing and FMCG

Indore is famous for its food industry, with major production units for namkeen, confectionery, and processed foods located in Polo Ground and Dewas Naka. In industrial food processing, thermal cameras are used to monitor cooking temperatures on conveyor belts and to check the seal integrity of packaging (heat sealing). If the thermal imaging on a sealing machine is miscalibrated, it might report a package as sealed when the temperature was actually too low to bond the plastic, leading to leakage and spoilage during transport. Vega Calibrations helps these manufacturers maintain food safety standards (HACCP) by calibrating the non-contact thermometers and cameras used to verify that critical control points (CCPs) are within safe limits, ensuring the famous taste of Indore reaches the world safely.

Industrial Use Cases

Predictive Maintenance of Electrical Panels

In the heavy industries of Mhow and Khandwa, downtime is the biggest enemy. Maintenance teams use handheld thermal imagers to scan electrical panels for loose connections, unbalanced loads, or overloaded breakers. A loose connection creates resistance, which generates heat. A calibrated thermal camera can visualize this heat as a glowing "hot spot" long before the component fails or catches fire. Vega Calibrations plays a pivotal role here; we ensure the camera’s temperature scale is accurate so that a maintenance engineer can distinguish between a normal operating temperature and a critical alarm state. Without our calibration, a factory in Bagoda might ignore a failing breaker because their camera reads 10°C lower than reality, risking a catastrophic plant shutdown.

Building Envelope and HVAC Audits

With the rise of commercial complexes and IT parks in Vijay Nagar and along the Super Corridor, energy efficiency has become a priority. Facility managers use thermal imaging to scan building exteriors for "thermal bridges"—areas where heat is leaking out (in winter) or seeping in (in summer) due to poor insulation or window sealing. They also scan HVAC ducts for leaks. Vega Calibrations calibrates these cameras to ensure they can detect minute temperature differences (thermal sensitivity). Precise calibration allows auditors to accurately calculate energy losses. For a green-certified building in Indore, an uncalibrated camera could mean missing a major insulation void, leading to higher electricity bills and a failure to meet energy efficiency sustainability goals.

Molten Metal Monitoring in Foundries

The metalworking and foundry units in Ujjain and Dewas operate in extreme environments. They use fixed thermal cameras to monitor the temperature of molten metal as it is poured into molds. This is a critical process; if the metal is too cool, it won't fill the mold properly (cold shuts), and if it's too hot, it creates porosity. The challenging aspect here is "emissivity"—liquid metal radiates heat differently than solid objects. Vega Calibrations provides specialized calibration services that account for these high-temperature ranges and specific spectral responses. We help foundries in Sanwer Road configure their cameras to read the true temperature of liquid steel or aluminum, reducing scrap rates and ensuring the metallurgical strength of the final cast components.

Validation of Cold Chain Logistics

Indore is a central logistics hub for India. Reefer trucks and cold storage warehouses in Rau and Bypass Road use thermal cameras to quickly scan pallets of frozen goods as they arrive. This "screening" process ensures that the goods were not exposed to high temperatures during transit. A thermal camera allows them to scan a whole pallet instantly without opening boxes. However, if the camera is out of calibration, it might show a frozen pallet as safe when the internal temperature has actually breached the safety threshold. Vega Calibrations ensures these logistic companies have reliable instruments, safeguarding the cold chain integrity for vaccines, dairy, and frozen peas moving through the Indore region.

Compliance & Audit Requirements

In industrially advanced landscape, data integrity for temperature measurement is the key to passing inspections:

• ISO/IEC 17025:2017: The gold standard for calibration labs. Our NABL accreditation guarantees that our results are technically valid and internationally recognized.

• IATF 16949: For automotive clients in Pithampur, calibration of thermal instruments is mandatory to prove process capability and control.

• 21 CFR Part 11 / GMP: Pharma companies in Dhar and Indore require documented proof that instruments used in production are maintained and calibrated to prevent data integrity issues.

• HACCP (Hazard Analysis Critical Control Point): Food processors must validate thermal processes; our certificates serve as the required evidence for food safety audits.

• NFPA 70B: Standard for electrical equipment maintenance which recommends regular thermal scanning with calibrated equipment to prevent fire hazards.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Q: How often should I calibrate my thermal imaging camera in Goa?

A: Most manufacturers and standards like ISO recommend a 12-month calibration interval. However, if you use the camera in harsh, dusty environments like Dewas Naka, or for critical pharma applications, a 6-month cycle is safer.

Q: Can you calibrate thermal cameras from Fluke, FLIR, and Testo?

A: Yes, Vega Calibrations is equipped to calibrate all major brands including FLIR, Fluke, Testo, and Keysight, ensuring their readings align with NABL standards.

Q: Do you provide on-site calibration in Pithampur?

A: Absolutely. We understand that stopping production is difficult. Our team travels regularly to Pithampur, Rau, and Bagoda to perform onsite calibration for fixed thermal systems.

Q: What is the difference between a standard calibration and NABL calibration?

A: An NABL calibration ensures the lab has been assessed by a third party (Quality Council of India) for technical competence. For industries in Indore facing audits (FDA, TS), a non-NABL certificate is often rejected. Vega provides full NABL-accredited reports.
