FLIR的歷史
FLIR成立于1978年,開創并發展了機載領域的高性能、低成本紅外成像系統。紅外成像系統可以探測所有被人類、物體、材料所發射的紅外能量。紅外熱像儀可以讓操作者在完全漆黑的環境中或惡劣的天氣條件下透過煙霧或者濃霧清楚的看見目標物體。
將近80年代末,憑借紅外成像技術的多年經驗,FLIR開始向不僅要求優質圖像質量,還要求精確測溫的商業領域推出手持式和實驗室紅外成像系統。1990年,并購了工業紅外成像公司Hughes Aircraft Co.
1997年并購了瑞典的Agema公司,1999年收購了美國的Inframetrics公司,這使FLIR公司擁有了強大的技術開發和銷售隊伍。FLIR、Agema和Inframetrics代表了紅外熱像儀產品60多年的重要發展歷程和先進技術水平。Agema公司(原來的AGA公司)于1965年推出了第一臺用于電力線路檢測的商用紅外掃描系統。作為檢測領域的紅外熱像儀先驅,,Agema公司的其他顯著成就還包括:1973年推出了第一臺用于工 業檢測的電池供電型便攜式掃描儀;1978年為科研領域開發了第一臺能夠實時模擬記錄熱事件的雙波長掃描儀;1997年推出首臺非制冷紅外熱像儀Agema 570. Inframetrics是商用紅熱像儀和紅外培訓的先驅,1975年推出了第一臺與電視兼容的紅外成像系統;1995年推出了第一臺攝象機大小的焦平面(FPA)紅外熱像儀。這些并購為FLIR帶來了絕對積極的影響,因此,FLIR商用紅外熱像儀的市場占有率位居首位。FLIR的制冷和非制冷ThermaCAM系列紅外熱像儀已經為紅外檢測和分析設立了標準,并已成為全球最廣泛使用的非接觸紅外測溫系統。
FLIR Systems公司目前擁有四家制造工廠:美國FLIR公司有三家工廠位于美國(波特蘭、波士頓及加州的圣巴巴拉郡),一家位于瑞典的斯德哥爾摩。FLIR的銷售、市場和服務網絡已經遍及全球60多個國家,公司總共雇傭了超過1,000名紅外專家,隨時滿足您在紅外方面的需求。

FLIR history
FLIR was established in 1978 to pioneer the development of high-performance, low-cost infrared (thermal) imaging systems for airborne applications. Thermal imaging systems detect the infrared energy (heat) that is emitted by all people, objects and materials. Infrared cameras allow the operator to see in total darkness, adverse weather and through such air pollutants as smoke and haze.
Toward the close of the 1980s, FLIR began to leverage its experience in infrared imaging technology to develop hand-held and laboratory systems for a variety of commercial applications that required not only superior image quality, but also the ability to detect and measure temperature differences. This effort accelerated with the acquisition of the industrial infrared imaging group from the Hughes Aircraft Co. in 1990.
The acquisition of Agema (Sweden) in 1998 and of Inframetrics (Boston, MA) in mid-1999 has given FLIR an engineering team and a sales and support infrastructure that are unmatched. Together Agema and Inframetrics represented over 60 years of significant infrared camera development and thermography applications expertise. Agema Infrared Systems, formerly AGA, developed the first commercial infrared scanner, designed for power line inspections, in 1965. Pioneers in the development of infrared cameras for industrial inspection, other notable Agema achievements included the first battery-operated portable infrared scanner in 1973, the first dual-wavelength system capable of real-time analog recording for R&D markets in 1978, and the first uncooled infrared camera, the Agema 570, and 1997. Inframetrics, also a pioneer in commercial infrared cameras and thermography training, developed the first TV-compatible infrared system in 1975 and the first full-featured camcorder-style focal plane array (FPA) infrared camera in 1995. In 2003, FLIR Systems acquired Indigo Systems, a leading developer and supplier of a wide range of infrared imaging products, including cooled and uncooled infrared detectors, camera cores and finished cameras. The fruits of these acquisitions have had an extremely positive impact resulting in FLIR's dominance in the commercial infrared camera market with more infrared cameras sold than any other manufacturer. FLIR's ThermaCAM series of uncooled and cooled thermal imaging cameras have set the standard for thermographic testing and analysis and are the most widely used IR non-contact temperature measurement systems in the world.
Currently, FLIR Systems has manufacturing plants in the USA (Portland, OR; Boston, MA and Goleta, CA and in Stockholm, Sweden. Coupled with a worldwide sales, marketing and service network in over 60 countries, FLIR employs a total over 1300 dedicated infrared specialists, ready to help you with your infrared needs.
