Land Instruments has introduced the LSP-HD Landscan Infrared Linescanner, which delivers a scanning performance of 1,000 data points at up to 150Hz for process imaging definition. The LSP-HD combines high-speed scanning and thermal-image resolution. It is designed to operate in harsh industrial environments and with an identical form factor to its predecessor, the LSP Infrared Linescanner. Compatibility with all existing mounting hardware is maintained. Temperature ranges specially selected to suit a range of industrial applications, such as steel, glass, bulk materials handling and other high-speed continuous applications, make the LSP-HD Infrared Linescanner suitable for infrared process imaging.

Flir will be showing its infrared cameras at Maintec 2010, each with added-value features to provide access to new applications. The programme applies to 40 different infrared camera models, from the low-cost compact range to the flagship professional units. The mid-range T-Series includes new features such as IR video streaming, periodic storage and new lenses, and can also be used for basic analysis and mainstream predictive-maintenance work. The Flir T-Series comprises 10 models, with three appearing for the first time at Maintec 2010. These cameras are designed for those who need advanced functionality but not the sophistication of the Flir P-Series. Their thermal sensitivity is 0.05C across a wide temperature measurement range. To tailor temperature-measurement readings to the application, this addition offers a range of measurement modes. The Flir T365 and the T425 have been introduced to reduce energy consumption through highly efficient electrical and mechanical infrared faul...
