14 – About FLIR Systems
FLIR Systems is at the helm of innovation in the infrared camera industry. We anticipate
market demand by constantly improving our existing cameras and developing new
ones. The company has set milestones in product design and development such as
the introduction of the first battery-operated portable camera for industrial inspections,
the first uncooled infrared camera, to mention but a few innovations.
FLIR Systems manufactures all vital mechanical and electronic components of the
camera systems itself. From detector design and manufacturing over lenses and
system electronics, to final testing and calibration, all production steps are done and
supervised by our own engineers. The in-depth expertise of these infrared specialists
ensures the accuracy and reliability of all vital components that are assembled into
your infrared camera.
14.1
At FLIR Systems we recognize that our job is to go beyond just producing the best
infrared camera systems. We are committed to enabling all users of our infrared
camera systems to work more productively by providing them the most powerful
camera-software combination. Especially tailored software for predictive maintenance,
R & D and process monitoring is developed in-house. Most software is available in a
wide variety of languages.
We support all our infrared cameras with a wide variety of accessories to adapt your
equipment to the most demanding infrared applications.
14.2
Although our cameras are designed to be very user-friendly, there is a lot more to
thermography than just knowing how to handle a camera. Therefore, FLIR Systems
has founded the Infrared Training Center (ITC), a separate business unit, which pro-
vides certified training courses. Attending one of the ITC courses will give you a real
hands-on learning experience.
The staff of the ITC is also there to provide you with any application support you may
need in putting infrared theory into practice.
14.3
FLIR Systems operates a worldwide service network to keep your camera running at
all times. If there should be a problem with your camera, local service centers have
all the equipment and know-how to solve it within the shortest possible time. Hence,
there is no need to send your camera to the other end of the world or to talk to
14
someone who is not speaking your language.
