Ircon® Announces Infrared Thermal Imaging System with Camera Link Interface
Multiple cameras supported for automated process control and inspection applications
SANTA CRUZ, Calif., Dec. 3, 2008 - Ircon®, the worldwide leader in infrared (IR) noncontact temperature measurement, has announced its Maxline® 2 system is now available with a camera link interface supporting multiple thermal imaging cameras for a variety of automated process control and inspection applications. The system's software has a built-in input/output relay and networking capabilities, enabling users to manage multiple processes and communicate with other systems, if needed, for greater interoperability and control.
The Maxline 2 infrared thermal imaging system provides highly efficient and reliable in-line solutions for temperature measurement, thermal monitoring and process inspection in the manufacturing and research fields. Dedicated Maxline 2 systems are available for specialized applications, such as automated image analysis, fiber-optic preform inspection, and torpedo car inspection. Each system offers automatic calibration, ambient temperature and motion correction features, providing an accurate and repeatable perspective of process operations.
The Maxline 2 system with camera link interface is a complete package consisting of all the hardware and cable assemblies required to operate the Maxline 2 thermal imaging camera when interfaced with a camera link frame grabber. The kit provides power, serial communication, composite video and 14-bit digital video to and from the camera.
The Maxline 2 camera is a compact, sealed (NEMA 4 - IP67 rated), stainless steel enclosed unit with no external moving parts. The rugged camera housing is ideal for environments like steel mills, glass plants and other industrial facilities. An accessory enclosure keeps the camera cool, and its lens clean in extremely harsh environments. In addition, a full range of accessories, such as air purge and water-cooling options are available for use in hostile locations. This allows the Maxline 2 system to operate with minimal maintenance.
The high performance camera has five temperature ranges and multiple wavelengths, and is able to process full-image (320x240 pixels) temperature radiometry at 60 frames per second. Fast frame rate and special algorithms allow temperature measurement of moving processes. Utilizing Maxline 2 image capture routines, image data secured by the software can be viewed instantaneously, played back at a later time, or sent directly to an SQL database depending on the application software you choose. Up to 50 separate temperature measurements can be acquired from each captured thermal image.
