The infrared measurement systems Ircam Argos are specially designed for NDT (non destructive testing) applications. Based on latest infrared technology, they permit a fast, objective and automated 100% quality testing. Argos systems are particularly suitable for the industrial quality control allowing the automated i.o./n.i.o. classification of materials, components and products. The systems consist of an infrared camera, an excitation source and an evaluation unit. The measurement procedure is automated and customer optimised. Thanks to a specially developed software examination and evaluation are done by the IRCAM Argos system autonomously.
