Our client

Triaxial sensors and triaxial sensor components are manufactured by OF Bell for clients operating internationally in the utilities sector, incorporated into intelligent pigging technologies to support the accurate inline inspection of critical supply pipelines.

Manufactured to individual client specifications for integration into bespoke applications and technologies, triaxial sensors and triaxial sensor components assembled in the UK by our experienced electronics, sensor and complex component specialists protect the uninterrupted extraction and delivery of essential oil and gas utilities worldwide.

Accurate triaxial sensor technology

Triaxial sensors manufactured by OF Bell and applied by our clients in intelligent pigging technologies measure axial, radial and circumferential measurements, recording depth, length and width of defects in the pipeline to an exceptional degree of accuracy during routine inline inspection.

Manufactured at our UK-based facility following ISO-certified quality standards and confidential processes, triaxial MFL sensors and systems detect loss, corrosion, deformation, damage and weaknesses in pipe walls in high resolution to allow operators to efficiently and accurately monitor, maintain and repair pipelines around the clock, minimising risk and ensuring regulatory compliance.

Complex triaxial sensor development

OF Bell’s in-house team at our UK base works collaboratively with global inline inspection sector clients to explore and understand their unique intelligent pigging systems and how triaxial sensors are applied in the field, making recommendations for device selection that delivers optimal performance.

Our team’s excellent understanding of hall cell technology and hall cell devices, along with robust injection moulding and moulded plastics, creates complex triaxial MFL sensor components capable of scalable manufacture to budget, without compromise on performance, durability or accuracy.

Complete manufacture of triaxial sensors

Triaxial sensors by OF Bell are manufactured under one roof, combining in-house tooling, injection moulding, component assembly and testing capabilities, as well as device selection and materials advice, to protect our clients’ commercial interests and intellectual property rights.

A complex component and MFL sensor manufacturing specialist for the oil and gas sector, OF Bell has invested in our dedicated toolroom’s equipment to include CAD systems and 4-axis CNC for accuracy, precision and value for money right at the start of our injection moulding and triaxial sensor component assembly processes, delivering consistency throughout production.

Triaxial sensor assembly & potting

OF Bell’s precision electronics team professionally assembles triaxial sensors and triaxial MFL sensor components, pressure potting or vacuum potting each unit to customer specifications following recommendations as to effective primers and potting techniques for secure adhesion.

Durable, hardwearing triaxial MFL sensor components retain accuracy and performance levels in the field. Thorough in-situ testing of each unit to withstand 400 bar of pressure maintains quality reassurance in manufacturing prior to reliable dispatch in the UK and worldwide, reaching our clients’ technology production lines promptly in order to reduce lead times and shipping costs.
