Quanhom has always been active in international exhibitions related to thermal imaging technology.

The continuous zoom lens works on the principle that the focal length of its optical system can be changed continuously within a certain range, and the image plane position remains unchanged during focal length adjustment. When it is not possible to change the focal power of the optical system directly, changes in focal length can only be achieved by adjusting the distance between each lens group, which is the fundamental principle of the zoom optical system.

Quanhom participated in the 25th CIOE (2024) China International Optoelectronics Exposition from 11-13 September and had a full harvest!

Traditional infrared optical structures can be divided into three types: refractive, reflective, and catadioptric. Modern new infrared optical structures can be divided into three types: refractive-diffractive hybrid system, off-axis three-mirror system, and dual-FOV optical system.

The bore diameter of the mounting hole of the infrared lens (D) should be larger than the outer diameter of the lens (d), and generally, for optic lenses, D is larger than d by 0.4 mm. On special occasions where there is a high demand of coaxality or athermalized design of the lens, the size of the mounting hole should be determined according to specific situations. The gap between them is for easier installation, and some silica gel can be filled in the gap to keep the lens from damage.

Threads are indispensable elements within EO systems, especially infrared lenses, orchestrating seamless interaction among subsystems. Their efficient management enhances system responsiveness and real-time processing capabilities. Optimal thread utilization is paramount for ensuring the reliability and effectiveness of EO systems across diverse operational scenarios.
