✔ Image acquisition rate: 5 KHz (5000 fps)

✔ Scanning speed: up to 15m/sec (900m/min)

✔ Spectral range: 50 GHz – 0.7 THz

✔ Number of pixels (scalable): 256 x 1

✔ TeraFast® Viewer software

✔ Warranty period: 1.5 years

✔ Easily integrated into production process

Our ultrafast linear THz imaging system consists of two parts: a terahertz imaging camera and THz generator, both optimized & synchronized to each other. The generator is supplied with a specially configured horn antenna designed to cover the entire imaging area across conveyor belt. The horn spreads THz beam evenly and ensures that the whole THz radiation power is properly delivered from the generator into the camera. The camera pixel size determines image resolution of 1.5 x 3 mm, which is more than ample to support imaging in most industrial applications.

APPLICATIONS

Rapid non-destructive, non-invasive characterization and imaging of objects / defects in uniform materials or under coated surfaces has never been easier and faster than with our TeraFAST linear camera. Its record breaking image acquisition rate opens up doors to many industrial applications associated with Non-destructive testing (NDT), quality control and process control.

Pharmaceutical Industry Non-destructive testing (NDT) of drugs, medical products and baby’s diapers at industrial production lines.	.......	Wood Processing Industry Detecting concealed hollows, internal forms, shapes and/or defects saves a lot of time on inspections. Wood analysis - checking wood for water / moisture inside.
.
Food Industry Non-invasive technique for monitoring availability / number of hazel nuts inside of chocolate candy (already wrapped and packaged); detecting any plastic debris, extraneous bodies or inhomogeneous parts (clots) inside ready food products.		FMCG packaging Checking availability of items inside packages as a process control step; detecting foreign objects inside packaging meant to exclude human error or defective items inside the package.
.
Construction Materials and Building Trades Use THz imaging camera at manufacturing facilities or at construction sites to find out inhomogeneous elements or moisture in concrete, floor screed, plaster, wall paint etc.		Automotive Industry Indentify presence (or absence) of steel objects (viz. wires) or foreign bodies & elements inside of rubber tires. Inspect fitted tires on wheels to identify special run-flat nylon inserts attached to alloy wheels inside a tire, precluding tiresome tire removal for visual inspection.
.
Agriculture and Livestock farming Potato selection process running on conveyor belt aimed to separate planting-potatoes from mud clumps and stones. Measure the thickness of a wool coat on a live sheep.		Security screening and Letter scanning Homeland security: identification of hidden objects concealed in bags at the airports or check-points. Checking the contents of envelopes and parcels.
.
In fact, the number of applications is steadily growing and it is truly gratifying to observe increasingly high interest in THz technologies being displayed now by many researchers, and industrial clients and OEM manufactures..
.
.
Of course, Terasense, as always, remains committed to its customer-centric principles! We go great lengths to provide all our customers with our best customer-tailored solutions to satisfy their specific requirements!
