  • Challenges in Steel Production That FLIR Can Solve

    There are two key components to steel production that can pose the risk of failure and therefore require regular inspection: electricity and oxygen. Thankfully, Teledyne FLIR has a wide range of products that makes inspecting components easy and allow you to locate failures quickly. We’ve outlined a few key risks in steel production and which FLIR solutions can solve them below.

  • How the FLIR Scion Makes for a Stronger First Step in Power Line Inspections

    Utility companies frequently employ the use of thermography through helicopter inspections and by equipping their ground inspectors with high power thermal cameras. The problem is that traditional methods, while reliable, are limited in terms of scalability due to cost and time. The FLIR Scion Outdoor Thermal Monocular (OTM) can empower a large-scale workforce with insights of thermal imaging.

  • Crew safety on Icelandic commercial fishing vessel reaches new high with addition of FLIR M364C thermal camera

    Since its formation in 2005, Sónar has grown to become one of Iceland’s leading players in the import, sale, and service of navigational, fishing, and electronic communication equipment for ships and boats. One of its most recent projects was installing the FLIR M364C camera on a commercial fishing vessel, with the specific goal of improving safety in the challenging conditions the boat’s crew faces on a regular basis.

  • Introducing the FLIR G-Series Optical Gas Imaging Cameras

    Visualize harmful gases and Volatile Organic Compound (VOC) emissions What you do is critical. You showed us what it takes, then gave us good ideas to help you work safer and more efficiently. We took notes, and then we took action. The new FLIR G-Series features a family of 7 high-tech, cooled-core optical gas imaging (OGI) cameras that can help leak detection and repair (LDAR) professionals seamlessly locate and document harmful gas emissions. The G-Series was designed to empower everyday users within the oil and gas, manufacturing, steel, and utility industries to spend more time prioritizing leak repairs, and less time documenting them, while also better understanding the severity of the emission.  Together, we've raised the bar – again.

  • How to Document Thermography Inspection Findings Within NFPA 70B 2023

    In the previous post from our ongoing series covering the changes to the NFPA 70B 2023 concerning thermography, we looked at requirements for measuring Delta T (section 7.4) as part of creating an effective electrical preventive maintenance (EPM) program. This post specifically looks at the guidance pertaining to documenting thermography inspection findings—ensuring that noted changes in condition are properly recorded. In addition to offering guidance on detecting Delta T, the NFPA 70b 2023 is also explicit in requiring inspectors to provide effective documentation, stating “temperature differences between the area of concern and the reference area shall be documented,” (Section 7.4.3).

  • Optimizing Japanese Agricultural Practices with the FLIR AX8

    Japan’s agriculture is faced with many serious problems, including the aging of workers, a lack of successors, and trade liberalization under the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP). A research group is working on the optimization and automation of agriculture to solve these problems using the FLIR AX8 thermal imaging camera to collect temperature images of crops during the cultivation process. By visualizing the surface temperatures of crops on a time series, a technology not available in the past, their data can improve agricultural optimization and automation.

  • Safe, Low-Cost Diagnosis of Concrete Structures with High-Definition Thermal Imaging

    With the aging of social infrastructure systems becoming an urgent issue, the Japanese company West Nippon Expressway Engineering Shikoku Company Limited has developed a technology called “IrBAS” using FLIR A6701sc thermal imaging cameras. Currently, the team—including Mr. Matsuda, Mr. Hashimoto, and Mr. Hayashi—is using the IrBAS as an aging countermeasure for maintaining concrete structures.

  • Thermal By FLIR Partner Foresight Fuses Stereo Thermal and Visible Imaging

    QuadSight, a multi-spectral vision solution from Foresight, is an innovator in automotive vision systems. The QuadSight imaging system essentially combines data from two FLIR Boson thermal imaging cameras and two RGB cameras, hence quad, developed with a ground-breaking stereo imaging method by merging the strengths of each vision system technology. All four cameras are synced and run at 30 frames per second, featuring a unique, patent-pending technology that calibrates all cameras to a common coordinate axis, thus providing accurate pixel fusion between images received from the RGB and thermal cameras.
