We’ve begun winter bat monitoring with a conservation partner near Rosebud, AB. This Big Brown Bat recording from late February 2023 marked the coldest temperature when bats were active. Notably, bats were first recorded here on January 1st, the earliest bat activity reported for 2023 across all monitored sites in western North America, including California.

Did you know that fish make sounds? They have sonic muscles designed to move and vibrate their swim bladder. These rapid internal movements produce sound! Fascinating! But why do fish make sound, anyway?
Long-term passive acoustic monitoring is a low-cost, non-invasive, and round-the-clock research method we can continue to use to describe the life histories of fishes, without ever even laying eyes on them!

What Can Infrasound Detect?
The world is full of sounds that human ears cannot perceive. While we typically hear acoustic frequencies between 20 Hz and 20,000 Hz, a vast world of acoustic data exists below this threshold. This spectrum is known as infrasound. Specifically, infrasound consists of low-frequency sound waves ranging from 0.01 Hz up to 20 Hz. Because these waves travel massive distances without losing energy,…
Acoustic Testing Is Changing How Industries Prevent Failure
The failure of crucial equipment incurs more than just a financial penalty; there will also be repercussions in regard to operations, reputation, and potentially even safety.
Acoustic Testing Pro's goal is to assist industries with intelligent maintenance, inspection, and monitoring decisions through the use of advanced acoustic and ultrasonic technology; hence, we are committed to something more than testing alone.
The company's products and offerings have evolved from sensors that capture very precise acoustic signals, to inspection systems specifically designed for the field and for plant environments, to data and connectivity solutions that enable real-time monitoring: in other words, Acoustic Testing Pro provides an opportunity for industries to transition from fixing things reactively to enhancing their performance pro-actively.
The Importance of this
What companies in industrial businesses need does not stop at tools or equipment; they also need solutions that enable them to:
1) Identify faults earlier, 2) Minimize the impact of equipment failure by reducing down time, 3) Optimize inspection results, 4) Facilitate predictive maintenance, 5) Provide practical solutions for actual industrial environments.
The Value Behind the Brand
Acoustic Testing Pro is unique in that it combines:
Expert knowledge of solid principles of acoustics and ultrasounds,
Testing and inspection systems that are scalable,
Smart connectivity and data-driven reports,
Practical solutions for actual industrial environments.
In sectors like oil & gas, aerospace, rail, infrastructure, manufacturing, and utilities, having the ability to find defects before they become failures is a distinct competitive advantage.
Therefore, Acoustic Testing Pro is not merely involved in the marketplace of testing sound or testing signals but in helping to build trust in the fundamental health of all the equipment and resources to operate your business in the most efficient way possible.

The Future of Industrial Inspections Starts with Better Listening
What if you knew that a problem existed before your essential equipment really broke?
Due to the many advances in technology and evolving practices used to evaluate the industrial sector, the industrial sector itself is evolving away from traditional industrial inspection practices. Today many industrial sectors utilize sound (acoustic) or ultrasonic technologies as a means to discover problems within their assets, optimize their assets' usage rate, and improve their business operations' reliability.
Acoustic Testing Pro provides the latest in acoustic and ultrasonic inspection technologies for the purpose of conducting intelligent inspections, performing predictive maintenance, and continuously monitoring the condition of industrial assets in a number of different sectors, including aerospace, energy, transportation, and manufacturing. Our inspection technologies allow our customers to find faults in a timely manner, reduce equipment downtime, and make intelligent maintenance choices based on fact.
The following are some of the benefits of using acoustic inspection:
Faults can be identified prior to becoming critical.
Overall maintenance costs will be reduced.
Safety and compliance will be improved.
The ability to continuously monitor your assets will be available.
Data analysis will help to improve the accuracy of decision making.
As industrial systems become increasingly interconnected, the use of acoustic intelligence (AI) is rapidly becoming a new trend within the field of modern asset management systems.

The Hidden Sounds That Can Predict Equipment Failure
There is usually a warning or forewarning that Industrial machines may soon fail.
Machines usually develop problems before the main machine stops functioning, and in some cases, there are sound changes. Just as machines may have sound changes, many of the signs of operational failure can be found through visual inspection alone.
Through sound emissions analysis, maintenance personnel performing acoustic testing can identify different issues that can lead to a major failure, such as compressed air leaks, worn-out bearings, faulty valves, faulty electrical discharges, and mechanical wear prior to a major failure.
A proactive approach to maintenance provides several benefits to the industrial facility:
Less unplanned downtime
Lower total maintenance cost
Greater reliability of production equipment
Better scheduling of maintenance activities
Greater operational efficiency
The implementation of predictive maintenance strategies in industrial environments has spurred an increasing amount of interest in integrating acoustic testing practices into existing maintenance practices in order to improve asset’s performance and increase asset life.
Organizations that are utilizing the equipment condition monitoring method proactively are usually better positioned to avert costly disruptions and maintain uninterrupted production.

Sound Doesn't Lie: Why Acoustic Testing Is Becoming Essential in Modern Industry
Each piece of equipment naturally emits audible evidence about what’s happening to it via sound so the key to listening successfully to your equipment is knowing how to do this effectively and efficiently.
Acoustic Testing is providing Maintenance Teams across many different Industries a means in which they can use sounds to detect hidden equipment faults or potential future equipment failures long prior to them becoming too costly. Sounds or acoustic diagnostics of any equipment can detect non-invasive means of detecting compressed air leaks, electrical failures on motors, worn bearings & mechanical defects in machinery. Acoustic diagnostics can and should be used as effective means to enhance the operational reliability and overall performance of industry.
At ATP, we work with organizations to leverage state-of-the-art acoustic testing technology to provide them the ability to identify problems earlier, improve maintenance schedules, and enhance their overall operational performance.
Some of the benefits to using Acoustic Testing include: ✔️Early detection of equipment faults ✔️Reduced maintenance costs ✔️Increased reliability of equipment ✔️Improved workplace safety ✔️Improved energy efficiency
Predictive Maintenance is not only visual but also acoustic.

Building Smarter Maintenance with Sound
Failure of equipment often occurs without warning; machines will give off a "warning" acoustic signal before they fail, however, because traditional inspections may not recognize these signals.
At Acoustic Testing Pro we believe sound is one of the best tools for today’s predictive maintenance. By utilizing high-tech acoustic imaging and ultrasonic inspection technologies, industries can find compressed air leaks, electrical faults, mechanical wear and energy loss before they become a serious financial burden.
Why should I care?
✅ Decreased unplanned downtime ✅ Reduced maintenance costs ✅ Increased workplace safety ✅ Improved equipment reliability ✅ Enhanced energy efficiency
Our mission is straightforward: to assist maintenance teams with making educated decisions through innovative acoustic testing methods and education directed at their industry.
Whether you are an engineer, maintenance worker, reliability professional or facility manager, Acoustic Testing Pro can provide you with invaluable resources in the way of practical insights into how to use emerging technologies to increase your organization's reliability and best practices for utilizing the technology in acoustic diagnostics.
The future of maintenance isn’t only about finding out about an issue—it is also be about locating and fixing those issues prior to them turning into a problem.
