December 4, 2008 - Ircon 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.
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 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. Up to 50 separate temperature measurements can be acquired from each captured thermal image.
