How Can Thermal Imaging Cameras Help the Field of Automated Monitoring?

In the process of automated processing and production, the emergence of machine vision technology has replaced manual inspection, and the use of machines instead of human eyes for measurement and judgment not only saves manpower but also increases the reliability of inspection results to a large extent.

However, with the development of science and technology, pure machine vision technology can no longer meet the needs of production development, and we need more dimensions to maintain the reliability of the production process.

In automation applications, thermal imaging cameras can play an irreplaceable role in the following aspects.

For many applications, such as parts production in the automotive or electronics industries, thermal data is critical. While machine vision software can spot production issues, it cannot detect thermal anomalies. Thermal images provide production professionals with additional information.

In fact, there is nothing comparable to thermal imaging cameras when it comes to non-contact accurate temperature measurement, which adds a new dimension to machine vision and is the perfect solution for applications such as non-contact accurate temperature measurement and non-destructive testing.

Process control is mainly related to the temperature measurement and/or visual inspection of specific products on the production line, and the obtained parameters are used to control and improve the process so that the product temperature or appearance meets the requirements of technical parameters. Such as ensuring quality control, determining whether the product is 100% inspected, etc. Infrared cameras can achieve more, and technicians can use valuable data from the production process to improve the efficiency of the entire production process.

Condition monitoring is the identification of potential problems before they occur to prevent costly and unexpected shutdowns. Typical equipment that can be monitored includes high and low-voltage equipment, turbines, compressors, and other electromechanical equipment. Sometimes it is also necessary to monitor the entire production process, as any abnormality can lead to a dangerous situation.

Fire can destroy entire premises and storage areas in a very short period of time. The value of the destroyed goods is huge, and the cost of living is even more incalculable. Although warehouses and storage areas are often equipped with fire alarm systems and fire protection systems, these systems only come into play after a fire has started. Thermal imaging cameras can detect hot spots before fires break out so that those involved can take necessary action.
