Non-contact Thermal Imager
The Thermal Imager End-Effector for Cobots is a precision non-contact temperature measurement tool designed to generate detailed heat maps of industrial equipment, components, and processes. Ideal for applications in petrochemical plants, manufacturing, and process monitoring, it allows cobots to safely and efficiently inspect machinery, detect hotspots, and monitor thermal behavior from a distance of several meters.
With high-resolution thermal imaging and real-time data capture, this end-effector enhances predictive maintenance, safety, and quality control. Its compact, cobot-compatible design ensures easy integration into automated workflows while providing accurate, reliable thermal monitoring in demanding industrial environments.
