Forget about thermocouples and RTDs, The Ircon Thermal Grid Inspection System is designed to replace these traditional products with advanced thermal imaging technology. By combining the Stinger Thermal Imaging Camera with Ircon's Standard or optional Advanced Backlite Software automotive glass manufacturers now have a complete system for final inspection of rear window backlite grids.

• Determine bad glass in 2 seconds! The first thermal imaging system specifically for inspection of automotive backlight grids
• Looks for breaks in the grid lines as well as hot spots (Standard Backlite Software)
• Calculate temperature compensated resistance from existing low current or high current tests (Advanced Backlite Software)
• SQL database and printer interface (Advanced backlite Software)

Thermal Grid Inspection Software Features and Benefits

• Speed - Once power is applied to the glass backlite defects can be identified within two seconds by the thermal imaging camera. Much faster and more accurate then traditional thermocouples and RTDs used for inspection.



• AOI's - AOI means Areas Of Interest. AOI's can be drawn any place on the image. Line Checker AOI's look for points of broken grid that are not generating enough heat. Hot Spot AOI's look for thinned out portions of the grid that might fail over time. By looking for BOTH problems you can tune your production line to reduce scrap and warranty replacements.



• Recipe loading - Do you run several different styles of backlites on the same production line? With the Ircon Backlite Software different batch files can be loaded directly from a remote computer or even a PLC. Once loaded your ready to go!



• I/O Modules - With optional analog and digital I/O modules the Thermal Grid Inspection System becomes an integral part of your production system. Alarms can be sent to third party devices to create a zero defect production line!
