Presentation :

Thermoconcept is an innovative company started in January 2005. Thermoconcept is specialized in thermal characterization on materials and infrared thermography.

Our head office is situated in the ENSAM offices (Ecole Nationale Supérieure des Arts et Métiers), Esplanade des Arts et Métiers near to Bordeaux (France).

We are composed of scientists and professionals in order to help you in projects in thermal metrology and infrared thermography areas. Thermoconcept and its partners make available to you their knowledge to fulfil your expectations.

Thermal characterization :

 
                             
Stakes :
Nowadays, controlling thermal properties on materials is an important performance and advancement factor. 
 
   

On the one hand, thermal characterization aims to improve materials and  make them more competitive. On the other hand, a best knowledge of properties enables to determine thermophysical parameters injecting in mathematical algorithms to  realize modellings or large structures calculus. The main advantages  measuring  thermophysical properties on materials are to avoid wastes of time and important costs.

Thermal metrology certifies an optimal productivity.

Moreover, thermal characterization provides the assurance of a continuous and efficient quality control of your materials. Quality controls prevent flawed materials production, which is an uneconomic factor.

   
Our activities :

We are specialists on metrology. We assure sale and development of thermal characterization devices and we realize thermal properties measurements of your materials, linked to warmth transfer. We have a large and competitive range of devices in order to provide to you precise results in short time.

We realize measurements of thermal conductivity, diffusivity, effusivity and specific heat capacity (contact us for other demand) on solids, powders, liquids and pastes. Results are acquired through several devices and  methods :

   
             
Hot Disk thanks to  TPS Technology,
 
Flash (Parker, Degiovanni, Levenberg-Marquardt methods),
 
Hot Strip,
 
Hot Wire Hot Plan (Stalhane, Pyk, Zhang, Degiovanni),
 
DSC (Calorimetry).
 
             
           

Infrared thermography :

   

Infrared thermography enables to observe the object temperature from a  distance and without contact.

We are specialists in infrared devices installation bound to sectors like industry, building trades, R&D…

From the maintenance-diagnosis to the R&D applications, we guarantee an efficient and continuous support in order to fulfil your expectations.

 
   

The application area of our infrared systems is very large:

           
   

For R&D and its specific needs in scientific analysis, Thermoconcept and FLIR Systems propose infrared cameras and softwares especially created to solve  scientific problems and to understand thermal transfer phenomena.

 

For the industrial surveillance and machines control (industrial vision), Thermoconcept guarantees infrared systems to control and to supervise the temperature of production lines machines real-time. These infrared systems enable to anticipate potential risks of breakdowns or dysfunctions,  which are cause of important financial losses.

 

Predictive maintenance and diagnosis. The two commercial partners  propose to you cameras providing first diagnosis. They can determine the operation condition of some electric or mechanic zones.
