Aircraft Research Association (ARA) is a UK-based aerodynamics research institute working on innovative projects for the world’s major commercial aircraft and defence manufacturers. It recently set out to test a long-term theory that could make long-haul flights more efficient as countries move towards net zero.
Acoustic Imaging Offers up to 90% Reduction in Inspection Time with Minimal Training; Cordless Battery Improves Efficiency While Expanding Operator Mobility.
Optical Gas Imaging (OGI) cameras use spectral wavelength filtering and Stirling cooler cold-filtering technology to visualize the infrared absorption of gases such as methane (CH4) sulfur hexafluoride (SF6), carbon dioxide (CO2), and refrigerants. FLIR produces several camera models, each with a filter that matches the spectral absorption of the gas its meant to visualize.
Expanding the Exx range of thermal imaging cameras, the E52 features a Professional Quality Thermal Resolution and Provides On-Camera Routing Capability for More Efficient Inspections.
Teledyne FLIR, part of Teledyne Technologies Incorporated, today released the FLIR VS80 high-performance videoscope series, a professional inspection tool for use in a wide variety of commercial and industrial applications.
For this application story involving the FLIR Si124 Industrial Acoustic Imaging Camera, we interviewed Mr. Soichi Yagyu, President of Minalco Co., Ltd.; Mr. Yamaguchi, General Manager of Manufacturing; and Mr. Iwade, General Manager of Operations.
Teledyne FLIR successfully completed an installation of a long-range drone detection system for a critical infrastructure site in Sweden. A smart slew-to-cue system, combining radar, thermal imaging and visual sensors, makes sure no unmanned aircraft system goes undetected.
Teledyne FLIR preparation course for a qualification as a category 1 certified thermographer explains the basics of infrared, how to operate an infrared camera under different conditions and for various purposes, how to appropriately judge a measurement situation in the field and how to identify potential error sources to enable participants to undertake infrared inspections following written guidelines and report the inspection results.
