About the dynamic characterization of micro-bolometric infrared cameras

Non-contact measurement of the temperature profile of PET preforms

“…In our setup, the IR camera is used to map the temperature of the external surface of the preform and two thermopiles are mounted on a support (Figure 1.a) which slides inside the preform. The motion is provided by a linear motor controlled by an Arduino DC motor driver board (17). One of the thermopiles is scanning the lateral surface of the preform, while the other one is axially mounted and allows probing the preform bottom.…”
