Root-Cause Analysis of Thermal Problems
Featured Product from iba America LLC
Reliable monitoring of thermal processes plays a crucial role, particularly in continuous industrial applications. For these use cases, LAND® thermal imaging cameras are ideally suited, as they capture high-resolution temperature information directly from the running process. However, to find the root causes of hotspots or thermal anomalies, thermal imaging data must be analyzed together with additional process signals.
In a joint project, iba AG and LAND have therefore implemented the integration of LAND thermal imaging cameras into the iba system. ibaCapture v5.7 is now able to connect to thermal cameras whereas ibaPDA acquires the temperature data as numerical values. As a result, thermal process data from LAND thermal imaging cameras can now be acquired, stored, visualized, and analyzed synchronously with other plant and process data in the iba system.
