Manufacturing - Industries - Mechanical Testing, Inc.

MTI has successfully worked with several manufacturing facilities throughout the United States including Lockheed Martin, Fage, Ball Corporation, Global Foundries, IBM and most recently Tessy Plastics in Syracuse during the COVID emergency.

Mechanical Testing, Inc worked in conjunction with the entire Contruction team to stand up a from scratch 25,000 sq (emergency manufacturing space) to get a Covid-19 test manufacturing plant running in a very short timeline (100 days+/-).

MTI field personnel not only are very experienced in the manufacturing realm we will work tirelessly to ensure your facility has little or no downtime because we understand time is of the essence. In any factory "down time is lost time"

We are also contracted by manufacturing facilities for sensitive flow readings where food or other chemicals are used to offer a reading. In these cases our trained professional utilize ultrasonic meters to take these readings. This is a non invasive way of testing important reading to determine the flow. We also offer vibration testing with thermal technology to determine any equipment failure or possible hot spots that could cause a problem later. This is essential if you want to ensure no downtime in the facility and catch a problem before it starts.

Mechanical Testing, Inc. provides Full Building Commissioning Services, Test & Balance of HVAC Systems, Fire Life Safety Verification, Thermal Scans of buildings or environments, Sound and Vibration Testing, 3D Lidar scans (Revit incorporation), Indoor Air Quality Certification reports and much, much more.

Tessy Plastics, Auburn NY

Recently, Tessy Plastics was tasked with manufacturing 5 minute Covid test kits and very quickly they needed to turn up their space to accommodate manufacturing these. MTI ws proud to be part of the construction team to get this done in a tight timeline during a global pandemic. MTI employees welcomed the challenge and got the job done on time.

Fage Industries, Fulton NY

MTI Worked with Fage to Test & Balance their facility to ensure a safe working environment for the production of food.

Lockheed Martin, Owego NY

MTI worked performed Test & Balance services at Lockheed Martin.

Tips, Traps and FAQs

If your HVAC BMS controls have a bunch of outdated overrides in them, your burning money! HVAC overrides of heating and cooling valves cost building owners and operators $10,000's of dollars a year if left unchecked. Commissioning your BMS will save you money this year! Make it part of your Preventive Maintenance routine annually

Each year 100's-1000's of man hours are lost to construction companies because of pour or no, virtual drawing coordination. Reality Capture allows for existing buildings to be 3D Scanned and imported directly to AutoDesk so designers can create your new design based off correct and current conditions of the building environment. Saving the project$

Here is short video of MTI Test and Balance Engineer, Brian Venn discussing an Independent approach to TAB and why we are a proud member of AABC!

AABC - Independence Matters

Drones can be used for many different applications. Our inspections offer drone solutions for construction that can significantly reduce costs of many items. Specifically, they can eliminate the need for costly lifts in many circumstances. Drone use is a valuable option for construction companies. MTI offers different services for the construction.

Continued Commissioning is a process that works to improve how equipment in the building and systems function together. There are many variables that come into play, the age of the building or system being one and how the sequence of operation is managing the daily equipment routines.

MTI believes in Full Project Awareness and that is exactly what a 3D Scan provides. MTI has a state of the art Leica RTC360 3D reality capture solution. MTI will capture your environment in 3D. Export it into a manageable Point Cloud that is ready to be converted into a working RVT file.

Building Commissioning is the practice that ensures buildings are delivered according to the Owner's Project Requirements (OPR). Buildings that are properly commissioned typically have fewer change orders, tend to be more energy efficient, and have lower operation and maintenance cost. DO NOT Value Engineer Commissioning out of your next project

Symptoms of a building with an Air Balance issue:
Entry way doors "howl" and are difficult to open or won't remain closed. Odor issues in storage areas, break rooms or worse...bathrooms! Frost forms on window sills in the winter. High and Low Temperature areas in a building. Cooling problems in the summer – no matter how long the AC runs.

Change filters every six to eight months. Did you know that dirty air filters can lead to Dirty Air? Dirty air filled will allergens like pollen and mold can lead to sick time in the work place. Sick time means reduced productivity... do we need to go on? They also put wear and tear on your HVAC system meaning you will have to replace it earlier.
