The Best Selection of High-Tech Imaging Instrumentation For Industrial And Scientific Research
Quantum Design UK and Ireland (QDUKI) is an established and well-respected supplier of advanced scientific instruments for research in academic institutions, R&D departments and company laboratories across the UK and Ireland. QDUKI supplies a strong range of imaging cameras, with world-leading partners Specim, InfraTec and Raptor Photonics.
SpecimOne Launches in the UK
Specim, Spectral Imaging Ltd releases the SpecimONE spectral imaging platform for the industrial sorting market. With SpecimONE, machine builders, vision systems integrators, and other OEM’s will improve their time-to-market by taking advantage of SpecimONE’s agile development practices and creating new sorting applications without coding or in-depth knowledge of hyperspectral imaging.
SpecimONE is compatible with major industrial standards and allows seamless integration with machine vision systems e.g. Halcon and Sherlock. When combining hyperspectral imaging technology’s flexibility with a simplified platform, end-customers can create unlimited amounts of new sorting applications.
SpecimONE includes industry proven Specim FX series hyperspectral camera, SpecimCUBE processing hardware, and SpecimINSIGHT off-line software tool.
Specim FX series cameras are the first hyperspectral instruments designed specifically for industrial use. Cameras’ high frame rate meets the industry speed requirements, and robust structure and small size allow flexible installation locations.
SpecimINSIGHT allows users to browse and explore data, create, and validate classification models. The current feature set focuses on sorting industry requirements:
A robust yet fast classification algorithm PLS-DA and support for MROI functionality to benefit from FX series camera speed
Support for all Specim dataset format cameras
VIS-SWIR Technology
Raptor Photonics offers a range of VIS-SWIR sensors with different resolutions, pixel pitches and cooling options. Using a back thinned InGaAs sensor enables both the visible and shortwave infra-red spectrum to be viewed simultaneously from 400nm1700nm, essentially replacing the need for two cameras.
Raptor leads the way in VIS-SWIR camera design offering a range of sensors, cooling options and firmware enhancements making Raptor cameras some of the most sensitive on the market for surveillance, scientific and industrial applications. Raptor cameras are compact, rugged, and very reliable. As well as “off the shelf” cameras, Raptor offers OEM solutions as well.
Applications include:
Telecommunications
Space applications, environment
Transportation
Semiconductor Inspection
Medical – imaging through tissues / rare earth nanoparticles
Industrial process monitoring
Non-destructive testing
Instrumentation
Raptor Owl 640 M
VGA resolution, low power, VIS-SWIR camera. A TEC-less version of the successful OWL 640 Digital camera. This SWaP (Size, weight, and power) design is perfect for integration into small OEM and machine vision scientific platforms.
Raptor Ninox 640 SU SWIR Camera
The Ninox 640 SU is vacuum cooled to -80°C for ultra-long exposures of up to 5 minutes. Its ultra-low dark current and read-noise result in the best “scientific” SWIR camera on the market today. It is the perfect camera for semiconductor inspection.
Raptor Ninox 1280 VIS-SWIR Camera
High resolution, low noise, cooled, digital VIS-SWIR InGaAs camera. 10μm x 10μm pixel pitch enables the highest resolution VIS-SWIR image. 50 electrons readout noise enables the highest SWIR detection limit. The on-board intelligent 3 point NUC enables highest quality images.
