THERMOGRAPHY:   WHAT IS IT AND WHAT IS ITS INDUSTRIAL APPLICATION?

28 de August de 2020

Thermography analyzes have become a very common method in the industry thanks to their effectiveness in preventing breakdowns and the wide variety of applications they offer. In this post we explain what this technology consists of, what its main advantages are and in which areas it is usually used.

What is thermography and how does it work?                          

Thermography is a technique used to measure the temperature of objects, places and living beings from a distance. For this, thermal or thermovision cameras are used. These equipments capture the wavelength of infrared radiation emitted by the molecules of the bodies and analyze the data obtained, together with other physical properties of the surface and the environment, to calculate the values ​​accurately.

The result of infrared thermography is a two-dimensional radiometric image of objects, in which each pixel defines the temperature of an area. Thus, the global and local thermal characteristics are obtained, being able to diagnose possible pathologies in materials and buildings.

Advantages of infrared thermography

Thermography has a number of distinctive features that are very beneficial for organizations that decide to incorporate it into their procedures. This is one of its most outstanding features:

Non invasive

Thermographic analyzes are non-destructive tests that do not produce any type of damage on the studied components. This means that, unlike what happens with destructive tests, the materials retain their physical and functional characteristics intact, and can continue to be used as normal.
