FLIR Systems Inc has introduced its new FLIR A5sc, A15sc, and A35sc longwave infrared thermal imaging camera kits. Designed specifically for thermal bench top testing applications and easy deployment in tight machine vision locations, AX5sc cameras are available in a variety of pixel resolutions from 80×64 and 160×128 up to 320×256, and can meet the spatial resolution requirements of most applications.

AX5sc thermal imaging cameras provide technicians, researchers and manufacturers with a non-destructive, non-contact T&M tool that helps eliminate temperature measurement guesswork, both during the product development stage and on the production line. With the ability to see heat patterns and extract temperature values via live and recorded imagery, infrared technology like FLIR’s AX5sc Kit is quickly replacing thermocouples and spot radiometers.

AX5sc bench top test kits include a compact goose-neck stand for easy aiming. Cameras are light and very compact measuring 4.2” x 1.6” x 1.7”. Like all FLIR A-Series cameras, standard features include plug-and-play compatibility through GiGE Vision and GenICam protocols and 60 Hz frame rate for streaming images, allowing camera control and image capture in real time. The kit also comes with the newest FLIR Tools+ software for easy image analysis, recording and report generation.

Pioneers in all aspects of infrared technology, FLIR designs, manufactures, and supports thermal imaging systems and subsystems for industrial, scientific, government, commercial, and firefighting applications. With a nearly 50-year history of infrared innovation, +400,000 systems in use worldwide, and development centres and sales offices in over 60 countries, FLIR is the world leader in thermal imaging technology.
