With its modular design of camera plus up to 3 remote LED light sources, the system can seamlessly integrate with any welding automation equipment, providing excellent image quality for process research, additive manufacturing, welding education and welding production applications without the use of dangerous to eye lasers.
Using a NIR camera and NIR LED illumination together, the system generates stable, robust images of high contrast weld features that enables both manual remote monitoring as well as advanced Machine Vision analysis. The LED illumination module can be mounted remotely from the camera, providing flexible optical setups.
Stable, high contrast images are key to making precise geometric measurements and defect detection of weld processes. Combined with Xiris’ AI-powered machine vision package WeldStudio™, users can measure and track vital welding features, or detect defects in their process to meet the demands of even the most challenging fabrication standards in use today.
The Near Infrared Camera System is an excellent choice for production welding equipment, suitable for integration into most types of weld automation systems, particularly for demanding GMAW and GTAW processes.
