Infrared camera PI 08M series

analoghigh dynamic rangeindustrial

The Optris PI 08M is a short-wavelength thermal camera designed for complex laser manufacturing processes. It operates at 0.78 to 0.82 µm. The infrared camera targets hot, reflective surfaces, ensuring that temperature data remains reliable in NIR and CO2 laser work. Its wide range, high accuracy, and flexible field of view make it suitable for demanding industry needs. Conventional long-wave imagers struggle with metals. Emissivity is low and unstable, which causes readings to drift. The PI 08M thermal camera measures where many metals emit more strongly, improving repeatability and reducing reflection errors. Planck’s law favors short wavelengths at high temperatures, which lessens the impact of emissivity uncertainty. Choose a short-wavelength thermal camera for reflective, high-temperature tasks to keep process control precise and stable. Optris manufactures the thermal camera in Germany, which ensures high quality and reliability. The thermal camera for laser manufacturing measures continuously from 575 °C to 1900 °C. It maintains a strong distance-to-spot ratio to ensure accurate standoff readings. Acquisition adjusts to speed: 764 × 480 at 32 Hz for detail, 382 × 288 at 80 Hz for motion, and 72 × 56 at 1 kHz for fast events. A 764 × 8 sub-image at 1 kHz allows for line scanning, providing continuous thermal profiles for strips, seams, or rotating parts. The thermal camera connects via USB, making setup and data transfer straightforward. PIX Connect adds line scanning, image merging, and radiometric analysis to help teams process data efficiently.
