A Modular Platform Adapting to Your Inspection Workflows

Seeing Beyond the Visible - Hyperspectral Imaging Technology

Specim FX10 hyperspectral camera operates in the visible and near-infrared (VNIR) spectrum for comprehensive and detailed analysis of various surface properties, including color, texture, gloss, and defects, like stains or thickness of coatings.

Specim FX17 hyperspectral camera [alternative for FX10] goes beyond the visible range and can reveal the target’s chemical composition that is invisible to the human eye.

SpecimCUBE data processing platform provides rapid data acquisition and analysis capabilities for efficient and real-time quality control.
