Remote Visual Inspection; RVI - Mechanical​/Military​/Avionics

Summary

Remote Visual Inspection (RVI) is the use of video borescopes, push cameras, robotics, vessel cameras, and drones to perform a visual examination on customer assets to avoid disassembly, confined space entry, or scaffold building. When foreign material is detected in customer assets, retrieval tools are utilized to extract objects. Indications, features, and all details of customer interest are documented through high‑resolution digital images and video.

This data is compiled in a comprehensive report. RVI work is conducted in all industry segments including nuclear power plants, gas turbine plants, coal plants, chemical plants, refineries, and paper mills. A specialist may be required to inspect turbines, reactor heads, tanks, pipes, or vessels.

Experienced RVI technicians can be located throughout the United States. RVI trainee positions primarily are located out of the Greenville, SC and/or Charlotte, NC facilities.
