About TI Project HX

Optimize your Heat Exchanger Tube Inspections

Most commercial systems for the management and reporting of Heat Exchanger tube inspections are developed by software engineers who have no real-life or field experience with Heat Exchanger Tube inspection methods. In contrast, the TI Project HX application has evolved over many years, with functionality rooted in the actual needs, wants and experiences of a field technician.

The TI Project HX application had its genesis back in the late 1980’s, when as a field technician, the developer of the application was looking for a way to improve on the very basic and inflexible reporting options that were available for Heat Exchanger inspection methods at the time. The original application was coded using HP-UX to run on a HP UNIX workstation. As the mid 1990’s were approaching, it was becoming increasingly obvious that UNIX operating platforms were becoming legacy systems and that migration to an alternative would be required. The power of Microsoft’s Excel with its many built-in features, combined with its built in Visual Basic programming language, proved to be the perfect solution for this migration.
