The TF Thermoforming Thermal Imaging System from Fluke Process Instruments features a variety of linescanning systems that provide continuous, accurate and real-time thermal images and temperature measurements for thermoforming processes.

Each system comes in a wide choice of spectral and temperatures ranges to accommodate a variety of applications. The series also features dedicated hardware and software options, which have been created specifically for specialized applications and industrial environments. The TF Thermal Imaging System is ideal for applications reaching temperatures from 20 to 350°C (68 to 662°F).

MP Linescanner

With scan speeds up to 300Hz and the ability to scan up to 1024 data points in a single scan, the MP Linescanner Series can provide a complete picture of even the highest speed manufacturing processes. Additionally, with a 90° field-of-view and up to 200:1 optics, each spot on the target surface is capable of being sampled up to three times, ensuring an accurate temperature reading.

Each linescanner also includes a built-in line laser for rapid alignment, resulting in lower installation costs. Built-in water cooling and air purge features, as well as optional waterproof housing, help maintain the scanner. The MP Linescanner Series also allows users to utilize existing networks with pre-wired cables, which connect to a standard PC for fast installations. The system’s versatile DataTemp® DP Software also lets you create custom operating parameters as well as easily display thermal images and temperature profiles.

Thermoforming System Software

The intuitive TF System software displays each thermal image snapshot with overlaid customizable zones and results. The software features multiple alarm settings, with high alarms appearing red and low alarms appearing blue. Additionally, to control the heater, zone results can be output to your PLC or SCADA system.

The TF System also allows users to recall thermal image data files for analysis and display. During analysis, as the cursor is moved across the thermal image, the spot temperature and location (x- and y-coordinates) appear on the task bar.

Additionally, by utilizing OLE for Process Control (OPC), the TF Thermal Imaging System can communicate with a variety of common process control systems. As a result, the system is more than a measurement tool and can be used as an integral part of your total process control system.
