the most common purpose for detectors is to detect "hot boxes", which are overheated wheel bearings, and dragging equipment. there are other types as well, such as high-wide load detectors generally before structures like bridges and tunnels. there's also a new detector called an impact detector for locating flat spots on wheels. no defects means the detector didn't "notice" any problems that it is set up to detect.
