Time Lapse Video-Rate Imaging of Processes

Visualise Your Process Rate Information and Systems by Time and Temperature

Intertek MSG laboratory captures client key process information by time-lapse photography. In time lapse mode, a series of images are captured at preset times (seconds or minutes apart) and then saved as a video clip for presentation.  Individual images can also be analysed to give, for instance, particle size changes with time.

Clients work with MSG time-lapse capabilities to understand processes and more:

• Capturing the behaviour of a 'system' that changes with time or with temperature.
• Visualise the process for suitable presention to your clients and colleagues.
• Visualisation and usage of the images to obtain process rate information.
• Using video rate imaging video clips of the process to show, for instance, the failure of a part under stress.

Characteristics Analysed:

• Particle size changes
• Particle shape changes
• Change of position of particles
• Crystal habit changes

Associated technical issues:

• Fundamental understanding of process
• Powder flow changes
• Aggregation of particles
• Affect of shear on system
