Thermal Imaging for Manufacturing Industries

Thermal imaging is widely used in manufacturing industries for a large spectrum of applications. It helps adjusting the process parameters, find non-destructively defects on material without any contact or improve the quality control plan.

Temperature Control System for the Process Industry

In process industries, heat energy is applied in various ways to promote and control production processes, optimize output, and assure product quality. IR cameras are frequently used for non-contact measurements as part of automated temperature control systems for these processes. Some examples are the monitoring and control of chemical reactions, paper mill drying times, artificial fiber drawing operations, glass production and forming, plastic injection molding, primary metal production, die casting operations, laser welding and a host of other processes.

Accurate Non-Contact Temperature Measurements

FLIR's IR camera systems make accurate non-contact temperature measurements, communicate that data to various departments within the enterprise, and initiate control functions when needed. The need for heat energy and controlled temperatures is nearly universal in manufacturing enterprises. Therefore, the applications for FLIR cameras are extensive.

Material Evaluation & Testing

Infrared is also widely used for non destructive testing or material performance evaluation. Thermal imaging is used by Sodar cells manufacturers, semiconductor foundries to validate the quality of their production.
