Stamping Tests

[Dusk Blue Z]

Infrared is just a small portion of the Predictive Maintenance Services I offer my customers. I don’t think the cheap (18K) antique (8 year old) IR camera that I have would have the resolution or the range of focus to provide any useful images of a pad stamping. There is no macro setting and you can’t shoot through a magnifying glass. I don’t know what the capabilities would be with a laboratory grade camera.

You could check another forum site that I have used in the past, IRtalk.com . Post what you want to try and do in the applications section. There are a lot of really knowable people there who will give you some feedback and maybe some suggestions as well.

Good luck and post a picture if you get a good one.
