Thermal process control
Precise temperature monitoring for stable and efficient manufacturing processes.
Thermal process control enables continuous, non-contact monitoring of temperature profiles in real time. It ensures compliance with critical process parameters and helps to maintain product quality.

How it works — explained in a nutshell
Thermal process control is based on active thermography. In this method, the temperature distribution on the surface of components or within processes is captured using infrared cameras. Deviations in heat flow can indicate process irregularities or material defects. The method is non-contact, non-destructive, and can be seamlessly integrated into existing production lines.
Why thermal process control?
In many industrial manufacturing processes, temperature is a critical parameter. Deviations can lead to material defects, insufficient product quality, or safety-related issues. Thermal process control enables the early detection of such deviations and contributes to the stability of the manufacturing process.
Thermographic Functionality:
A heat pulse is applied to the component, and the resulting temperature distribution is captured and analyzed using an infrared camera. Deviations in heat flow may indicate process deviations or material defects.
