The Innovators Award 2016

“Multi-camera thermal monitoring systems traditionally required a very complex and costly infrastructure to operate. This infrastructure typically consists of industrial PCs, monitoring software, digital and analog I/O all integrated into a large electrical cabinet. These systems are costly to acquire and to maintain. Relying on a standard PC architecture for a fire detection or critical vessel monitoring system is a risky proposition. Our MIO Series Intelligent I/O module addresses all these issues, “said Markus Tarin, President & CEO, MoviTHERM. “Being recognized as a top innovator in our industry is an absolute honor. It further underlines the performance, ingenuity and cost benefits that we deliver to our customers.”

MoviTHERM’s MIO Series Intelligent I/O module (“MIO”) turns FLIR cameras instantly into a complete monitoring system. The MIO I/O modules eliminate the need for a PC, Software, programming or a complicated infrastructure.

There are two models of the MIO, one for FLIR AX8 cameras and one for FLIR A310(f) cameras. The MIO module has a built-in webserver that allows for easy configuration without the need for additional software. Each module comes with 8 digital alarm outputs and 8 Channels of 4 to 20mA outputs. These outputs can be assigned to any of the connected cameras. Once the MIO is connected to one or more cameras, it starts monitoring the camera’s internal region of interest. Each MIO Series Intelligent I/O module supports up to seven FLIR cameras. Systems can be easily expanded by adding additional MIO modules.

“On behalf of the Vision Systems Design Innovator Awards 2016, I congratulate MoviTHERM on their silver award,” said Vision Systems Design Editor in Chief, Andy Wilson.

MoviTHERM releases new product for remote monitoring

MoviTHERM MIO Series Intelligent I/O Module

Irvine, CA – April 15th, 2016

mio a310MoviTHERM announced today the release of a new product targeting remote monitoring applications. The MIO Series Intelligent I/O module (“MIO”) is an Ethernet-based thermal imaging module designed to work with FLIR® AX8 or A310(f) thermal cameras.

The MIO I/O module provides connected FLIR® cameras with the ability to alarm if a configured temperature threshold is being breached. The MoviTHERM MIO I/O module automatically connects to any of the configured FLIR® cameras on the network, looks up the designated region or area of interest (ROI), and starts monitoring. The MIO can also output an analog 4 to 20mA current loop signal per each region of interest, thus providing the user with process control options. The alarm outputs as well as the current loop outputs are being updated in real-time in this embedded monitoring solution.

An intuitive web server interface provides the user with a quick and easy way to configure or change alarm thresholds.

“The MoviTHERM MIO Series Intelligent I/O module turns FLIR® cameras instantly into a remote monitoring system!” adds Markus Tarin, President and CEO of MoviTHERM.

MoviTHERM MIO diagramMoviTHERM’s MIO I/O Module eliminates the need for running monitoring software on a PC. It greatly simplifies the architecture and infrastructure that is typically required for a multi-camera monitoring system. A remote monitoring system based on the MoviTHERM MIO I/O module is easily scalable without adding significant cost or complexity. Each MIO supports up to seven cameras. To monitor more cameras or to extend the I/O, simply add more MIO I/O modules.

Utilizing the MoviTHERM MIO I/O module for remote monitoring applications completely removes the complexities associated with thermal imaging and software engineering. The user can finally focus on what is important without the learning curve, programming, or hiring an engineering company.

MoviTHERM Introduces a Portable NDT Inspection System

MoviTHERM announces the debut of C-CheckIR, a portable NDT inspection system.

The new, easy-to-use system requires no specialized training and is controlled using a tablet PC and intuitive software interface. More cost-effective than similarly-capable ultrasonic inspection systems, the new C-CheckIR system brings active thermographic NDT inspection within reach for entirely new market sectors.

Portable NDT inspection SystemThe C-CheckIR controller software includes inspection presets for common composite materials, such as carbon-fiber reinforced plastic (CFRP/CRP) and glass reinforced plastic (GRP). This enables operators to start measuring immediately. Inspection parameters are completely adjustable, enabling custom configurations, but the majority of standard inspections will require only minimal set-up prior to obtaining useful results.

Measurements are completed in just a few seconds. The integrated optical excitation source provides thermal excitation to the sample under test. The system’s thermal camera captures a sequence of inspection images for analysis. The results of the analysis are presented in the form of an image, graphically revealing the internal structure of the inspected material. Typical defects such as delaminated regions are easily identified in the resulting image.

Unlike other thermographic inspection devices that are designed for stationary operation, C-CheckIR is designed for portability. The entire system is compact and fits in a single ruggedized transport case. The system’s inspection head is mounted on a lightweight, aluminum support frame. Vacuum-powered suction-cup feet enable operators to inspect objects and surfaces in any position, and at any arbitrary angle, including vertical or under-side surfaces. Pressing a button engages the vacuum, fixing the inspection frame firmly to the surface under test.

Both flexible and portable, C-CheckIR Portable NDT System is ideal for Service Providers who routinely perform on-site NDT inspections at remote locations. The system is suitable for aerospace, automotive, wind energy, marine, automotive, and other types of industrial clients who need a quick and reliable NDT inspection solution.

NASA awards Contract for Non-Destructive Test System

September 14th, 2011 – Irvine, CA, USA

NASA Awards MoviTHERM a Contract for an Infrared NDT System

The NASA Johnson Space Center in Houston, TX has awarded MoviTHERM Advanced Thermography Solutions a contract for an infrared non-destructive test (NDT) system for the purpose of testing advanced composite structures and materials.

NASA Composite example

The NDT test system uses a thermal camera from FLIR Systems, Inc. and various thermal excitation sources. Halogen lamp arrays and Xenon flash lamps induce a low temperature thermal wave into the surface of the composite material. The system then analyzes the reflected thermal wave over time and is able to detect defects and inhomogeneities in the makeup of the material.

The NDT known as  “CompositeCheck” uses a Lockin Thermography method for enhanced sensitivity to highlight material defects such as voids, foreign material inclusions, impact damages and delaminated areas.

From the international space station to the recently announced space launch system program, a super rocket – more and more conventional materials are being replaced in favor of composites. However, despite all the advantages that composite materials offer, there are also significant challenges in the manufacturing process that demand new inspection technologies.

“This system will significantly enhance NASA’s ability for performing non-destructive tests on complex composite structures beyond that what can be achieved with traditional ultrasound NDT systems.” says Markus Tarin, President & CEO of MoviTHERM.
