  • THERMAL IMAGING ENSURES QUALITY OF SEALANT IN ONLINE PROCESS FOR MOONROOFS

    Sealant volume and placement accuracy are critical to a moon roof's structural integrity and sealing performance. Continuous monitoring is important, but monitoring visually can be unreliable and inconsistent. With thermal imaging technology, manufacturers can monitor glue bead dispensing to ensure the consistency and coverage needed for full adhesion.

  • Plastic IR Welding Quality Control

    See how thermal imaging can provide continuous monitoring of IR weld quality without interruption, waste, or unexpected process issues.

  • Application Spotlight: Water Intrusion Inspections

    Thermal imaging uses the physics of evaporative cooling to detect water leaks inside automobile cabins and other areas protected by weather seals.

  • Application Spotlight: Electrical Systems Inspection

    It's crucial at all levels of testing, validation, and manufacturing to ensure that a vehicle's electrical system—with its countless wires, connectors, switches, relays, and other components—functions properly. Many troubleshooting methods involve diagnostic tools that require significant time to simply locate the source of the problem. Thermal imaging allows engineers, technicians, and assembly workers to swiftly identify and correct potential electrical issues.

  • Preventing Collisions on Rural Roads with TrafiOne

    UK traffic safety specialist Westcotec teamed up with FLIR to build a unique collision avoidance system on a staggered junction near the city of Durham. The system, which includes FLIR TrafiOne thermal sensors, has helped change driver behaviour and reduce the number of collisions to zero.

  • Application Spotlight: Electrical Panel Monitoring and Inspection

    When electrical connections and components overheat, it can be a sign of impending failure. So maintenance professionals need a fast, reliable way to spot these problems early and begin working on repairs and preventive maintenance. Conducting electrical panel inspections using a thermal camera can reveal hidden hot spots and provide maintenance workers the opportunity to solve electrical issues before they create a serious and costly problem.

  • FLIR Technology Used to Keep Children Safe at Busy Crossings

    To help prevent traffic incidents with children, the city of Hoofddorp invested in a smart crossing near the school consisting of FLIR thermal pedestrian sensors and LED road studs.

  • 5 Reasons to Use FLIR Saros DH-390 Dome Camera to Grow Your Remote Monitoring RMR

    As integrators face ongoing pressure to reduce margins on video surveillance equipment, new innovative ways to drive profits and increase their business valuation must be uncovered to keep the business healthy. Customers have shown a desire to pay for products and services that can produce measurable results, showing increased security or reduced overall expenses.

  • FLIR cameras increase safety margins for deep-sea fishing trawlers

    When deep-sea marine electronics specialists Nautical were asked to supply a fleet of fishing trawlers with thermal cameras, they had no hesitation in recommending FLIR products. Based out of Vigo, Spain, the trawlers spend most of their time working in high latitudes in the northern and southern hemispheres.

  • Solutions for Gas Maintenance Problems Webinar

    Listen to this webinar to discover how the FLIR GF77 can resolve some of the many maintenance challenges faced by the oil and gas industry.

  • Application Spotlight: Liquid Leak Detection

    Above-ground fluid spills, sprays, and pooling are among the concerns with transporting oil through pipelines. Leaks often start small, making them challenging to detect until it's too late. Delays in leak repairs can cost millions of dollars in financial losses and wreak havoc on the environment. A fixed thermal imaging camera set to monitor the pipeline can help companies catch leaks early.

  • Application Spotlight: Flare Stack Monitoring

    Flare systems are often a last line of defense in preventing dangerous hydrocarbon pollutants from entering the atmosphere. Various technologies have been used to monitor flares, but they are often ineffective at minimizing smoke from stake combustion — which is an important indicator of burn efficiency. Thermal imaging technology can help inspectors recognize the difference between the heat signature of a flare stack flame and the surrounding background.
