Compact square thermal camera for embedded & WAAM systems
Designed for tight spaces and permanent installation, the HeatCam-IR-S brings Therness thermal accuracy into a compact, rugged square form factor.
Ideal for WAAM cells, robotic heads, and multi-sensor setups where space, stability, and repeatability matter.
HeatCam-IR-S
Compact Thermal Camera for Embedded & WAAM Integration
Built to integrate
The IR-S is purpose-built for installations where the camera becomes part of the machine—tight envelopes, repeatable positioning, and stable thermal capture.
- Compact square housing for easy mechanical integration
- Designed for permanent installation in industrial cells
- Stable geometry for repeatability across shifts and recipes
Best fit
Optimized for additive manufacturing and robotic applications where space and mounting constraints eliminate classic cylindrical form factors.
- WAAM cells and robotic heads
- DED and robotic additive manufacturing
- Multi-sensor setups (thermal + vision + metrology)
Same Therness thermal performance, new mechanical freedom
The HeatCam-IR-S keeps Therness thermal accuracy while giving integrators a compact, rugged square body designed for embedded systems.
Compact square housing
Easy to fixture on robot wrists, heads, and machine frames.
Continuous industrial operation
Designed for long runs, stable mounting, and repeatable acquisition.
WAAM / DED ready
Intended for robotic additive manufacturing cells where integration is as important as imaging.
Integration-first design
Built to coexist with other sensors when mechanical space is limited.
Technical specifications
IR-S specifications depend on the integration package (optics, interfaces, mounting, and environment). Below is what we typically define with your team during integration.
Mechanical & mounting
- Mechanical envelope and mounting pattern
- Brackets/enclosures for robotic heads and cells
- Cable routing and strain relief for moving axes
Optics & imaging
- Lens selection and field-of-view
- Focus strategy (fixed vs controlled) depending on standoff
- Calibration approach for your process
Interfaces & integration
- Network and protocol requirements
- Data export formats for logging/automation
- Sync with robots and multi-sensor stacks
