Thermal Camera, Software Eases Preventive Maintenance

GTI Predictive’s ThermoPro package includes FLIR Systems’ thermal camera and the ThermoPro iPad app, enabling machine shops to use thermography to locate machinery problems as well as track thermal data over time for preventive maintenance. This iOS-compatible software provides a professional database and toolset for the plug-and-play camera.

Thermal data embedded in an image enables any part of the image to be analyzed for temperature. Users can organize the shop’s database in the same way the shop is organized. Custom headers provide enhanced database flexibility, enabling organization based on location or machine type. Full reporting with thermal image annotation right on the iPad enables users to share emergency information instantly via email.

Machine shops can also take advantage of the included web application, which provides a trend chart that tracks low, average and high temperatures. This allows multi-shop companies to analyze their assets from any Internet-connected computer.
