AUSA 2024: Quantum-Systems targets big 2025 with UAS developments
Quantum-Systems has been upgrading its UAS family, with new versions of the Vector, Reliant and Twister drones set for release throughout 2025.
VisIR 640 has everything you need for industrial Predictive Maintenance and more; crystal clear images from a highly sensitive 640 x 480 uncooled infrared sensor, precise temperature measurement and the most powerful range of easy to use camera tools and unique Condition RED database and software options.
With its unique rugged industrial housing, an articulated central optics pod forVisIR 640 ergonomic safe operation and high contrast DayBright touch screen, VisIR 640 provides high definition thermal and visual image clarity in any lighting conditions.
VisIR 640's high resolution detector and 1.3MP colour camera makes surveys more efficient and cost-effective. With integral LED illuminator/flash, laser pointer and voice recording, VisIR 640 packs a knockout punch in the industrial Predictive Maintenance arena.
Predictive Maintenance, or Condition Monitoring, keeps a check on the health of assets through regular inspection. Effective Predictive Maintenance enables repair to be performed when it is most cost-effective, before assets lose optimum performance and when downtime is minimised.
The 640 difference
VisIR 640 and Condition RED® fully integrate your thermal camera and asset database to create an automated data store, image analysis, route planning and report generation system. Condition RED supports file formats from all major thermal imager camera manufacturers - including all FLIR Systems, Inframetrics, Agema, Avio and of course, Thermoteknix.
