Rental Imaging Cameras Now Available

High Performance, Compact Imaging Cameras

Businesses and researchers seeking advanced imaging solutions for quality control, material inspection, and counterfeit detection can now access top-tier technology more easily than ever. Quantum Design UK and Ireland (QD-UKI) has a rental service offering hyperspectral and infrared (IR) cameras, providing flexible access to powerful imaging tools across a wide range of industries.

“We’ve seen increasing demand from customers looking to explore the potential of hyperspectral and infrared imaging in their workflow. Our rental service helps remove barriers to entry, letting organisations evaluate and use this technology on their own terms. We’re giving industries the tools to solve complex problems without the barrier of high upfront costs”

Dr. Luke Nicholls, Technical Sales Manager, Quantum Design UK and Ireland

Hyperspectral Imaging (HSI): See Beyond the Visible
HSI systems capture data across hundreds of spectral bands, making them ideal for detailed analysis in fields like:

  • Anti-counterfeiting & security
  • Pharmaceutical and agricultural inspection
  • Art conservation & document verification
  • Environmental monitoring

Infrared Imaging: Precision Thermography for Inspection & R&D

Alongside HSI, QD-UKI also offers 2D infrared cameras from InfraTec — specifically the ImageIR® 8300 “The Flexible”. The 8300 is ideal for non-contact, non-destructive temperature measurement and object inspection. These cameras are perfect for:

  • Active Thermography
  • Additive Manufacturing
  • Thermal Optimisation
  • Laser Industry
  • Spectral Thermography

The ImageIR series, known for high resolution and speed, is paired with IRBIS® 3 thermography software, offering fast, in-depth analysis of thermal imaging data — empowering users to quickly identify anomalies and optimise systems. Whether you’re validating a new technology, conducting short-term studies, or scaling up inspection processes, these rental programs let you access advanced imaging with flexibility and confidence.

About the Specim FX10

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

About the Specim FX17

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:

  • Feed Quality
  • Waste Sorting
  • Recycling
  • Moisture Measurement
  • Threat detection, Security
