Specim FX Series Hyperspectral Imaging Cameras

High Performance, Compact Hyperspectral Imaging Cameras

Specim is a pioneer and world leader in hyperspectral imaging instrumentation.  With a hyperspectral imaging camera from Specim you will have spectral information at each and every pixel of your image.  All the cameras from Specim operate according to the push-broom technique, meaning that the target is imaged line by line to build up the full 2D image. Specim have instruments designed to operate in specific discrete bands across the VIS-IR spectrum (400 nm to 12 µm).

Specim’s instruments are suited for a whole host of applications including remote sensing, geology, food quality, plastic sorting, online inspection and colour measurement. Additionally, the instruments are extremely versatile, and in most cases the same camera can be configured for use in the lab, field or sky.

MODELS

The FX10 is a compact, lightweight, cost-effective hyperspectral camera for the VNIR spectral range (400-1000 nm). F/1.7 optics enables excellent light throughput, high sensitivity, short integration times and high signal-to-noise ratio. The FX10 operates with an impressive frame rate of 330 fps (full frame) using 1024 spatial pixels and 220 spectral bands. By reducing the number of spectral bands, the frame rate can be increased up to 9,900 fps. The camera is supplied with a high quality lens (38 deg FOV) and includes an integrated shutter and order sorting filter. The camera is also IP52 rated, making it suitable for use in harsh environments.

FEATURES:
400-1000 nm spectral range
5.5 nm spectral resolution
220 spectral bands
F/1.7 optics
1024 spatial pixels
330 fps (full frame)
CL or GigE models
600:1 SNR (peak)

APPLICATIONS:
Vegetation & agriculture
Phenotyping
Colour & density in printing
Display & light source inspection
Food quality

Additionally, there are other VNIR camera models available for low-light applications, or if greater spectral resolution is required. Please contact us for more details.

The FX10c is a small, fast, and affordable hyperspectral camera specifically designed for colour measurement with a spectral range of 400-800 nm and a higher sensitivity in the blue when compared to other cameras. F/1.7 optics enables excellent light throughput, high sensitivity, short integration times and high signal-to-noise ratio. The FX10 operates with an impressive frame rate of 514 fps (full frame) using 1024 spatial pixels and 140 spectral bands. By reducing the number of spectral bands, the frame rate can be increased up to 9,900 fps. The camera is supplied with a high quality lens (38 deg FOV) and includes an integrated shutter and order sorting filter. The camera is also IP52 rated, making it suitable for use in harsh environments.

FEATURES:
400-800 nm spectral range
140 spectral bands

The FX17 is a small footprint hyperspectral camera built around an InGaAs detector. It operates in the NIR spectral range (900-1700 nm). As with the FX10 camera, F/1.7 optics enables excellent light throughput, high sensitivity, short integration times and high signal-to-noise ratio. The FX17 operates with a frame rate of 670 fps (full frame) using 640 spatial pixels and 230 spectral bands. By reducing the number of spectral bands, the frame rate can be increased up to 15,000 fps. The camera is supplied with a high quality lens (38 deg FOV) and includes an integrated shutter. The camera is also IP52 rated, making it suitable for use in harsh environments.

FEATURES:
900-1700 nm spectral range
8 nm spectral resolution
230 spectral bands
F/1.7 optics
670 fps (full frame)
CL or GigE models
1000:1 SNR (peak)

APPLICATIONS:
Food & Feed Quality
Waste Sorting
Recycling
Moisture Measurement
Threat detection, Security

Specim FX120 is an advanced long-wave infrared hyperspectral camera with a full spectral range of 7.7 to 12.3 µm and 160 spectral bands. This fast push-broom thermal hyperspectral camera is set to redefine chemical imaging capabilities in challenging environments, day and night.

Operating in the LWIR spectral range combined with unparalleled sensitivity, the Specim FX120 can perform accurate mineral mapping, landmine, and ordnance detection and is sensitive to detect thermal anomalies and classify even gases. Its compact, transferable, and robust design enables easy integration into existing systems, facilitating seamless adoption for various operating environments.

In conjunction with the SisuRock workstation, the Specim FX120 revolutionises drill-core scanning. Specim FX120 can detect minerals undetectable by other wavelengths, and its speed and accuracy in capturing all sizes of core enhance productivity in drill-core analysis.

Specim announces the upgraded Specim FX50 middle-wave infrared (MWIR) hyperspectral camera. The Specim FX50 is the first and only push-broom hyperspectral camera on the market that covers the full MWIR spectral range of 2.7 – 5.3 μm.

FEATURES:
FULL MWIR SPECTRAL RANGE – For detecting, e.g., black plastics, hydrocarbons, minerals, oil, and contamination on metal surfaces
HIGH FRAME RATE AND SIGNAL-TO-NOISE RATIO – For accurate classification and high imaging speed and throughput
OPTIMIZED THERMAL MANAGEMENT – To maximise sensor lifespan and minimise downtime
ROBUST AND COMPACT DESIGN – Simple to mount and durable for harsh industrial environments
EASY INTEGRATION – Standard GigE Vision interface to communicate with commercial analysis software
UNIFIED SPECTRAL CALIBRATION – Comparable and transferable data between different units

APPLICATIONS:
Black plastics sorting
Metal Industry
Geology and mining
Safety and Security
