IRphotonics Offers New iCure Products to Ensure Control & Repeatability of the Assembly Process


Non-Contact Infrared Sensor and USB Thermocouple Interface Offer a Fast & Accurate Method to Monitor Temperature

Hamden, Connecticut - IRphotonics, a world leader in the design, manufacture, and marketing of Infrared fibers & systems announces the availability of 2 new iCure products to ensure the control & repeatability of assembly processes.

The iCure IRT200 Thermo Meter is non-contact Infrared sensor designed to measure the temperature of objects based on their emitted infrared energy. The Thermo Meter measures the heat & converts it into an electrical signal which is proportional to the surface temperature of the cure zone. Developed to work with the iCure Thermal Spot Curing system, the portable iCure Thermo Meter is composed of a power controller & sensor. It offers a fast & accurate method to monitor temperature and ensures control & repeatability of the assembly process.

o Wide temperature range -50°C to 975°C

o Easy system configuration & sensor calibration

o Measurement spot down to 0.9 mm

o Ensures repeatability & control of the assembly process

o Ideal in large scale manufacturing Environments

The iCure TCK200 USB Thermocouple Interface Kit offers a seamless interface kit with the iCure allowing precise measurements of temperatures using a range of common contact thermocouples.

The TCK200 Thermocouple can be used to calibrate the IRT200 Thermo Meter and to do process validation in the lab.

o Supports up to four J, K, E & T-type thermocouples

o Supplies temperature in degrees Celsius, Fahrenheit & Kelvin

o Uses terminal blocks to interface to inexpensive thermocouples with stripped leads

o Connects directly to iCure via USB port

o Sampling Rate : 40 ms
