Australian technology distributor Madison Technologies has announced a new partnership with global IP Camera solutions manufacturer Mobotix, that sees the company become the preferred Mobotix thermal partner for Australia.
“We are delighted that our work with and commitment to Mobotix has been acknowledged through this agreement,” says Madison Technologies’ Managing Director, David Redfern. “Our customers will benefit greatly from the combination of Madison’s innovative solutions and Mobotix cutting edge thermal technology.”
As part of the partnership, Madison has appointed a dedicated thermal specialist, Adam Christofides, who will provide application assistance to customers directly, and work to establish a Mobotix thermal certified course to be delivered by Madison in the future.
The arrangement will benefit customers within security markets as well as broader rail and mining industries.
“Thermal technology that has previously been cost-prohibitive, is now being explored seriously as a solution in more applications,” Mr. Redfern said.
“We are already working with customers wanting to apply the Mobotix thermal imaging technology across various verticals such as rail for monitoring wheel bearings, surveillance of people/track workers in tunnels and spotting illegal train riders. Thermal cameras are also becoming increasingly popular for perimeter detection, from large deployments such as solar farms and Defence bases, to the smaller applications in car yards. And of course, the mining, oil and gas sector will always have a need for temperature based monitoring, for spontaneous combustion or flare ups in hazardous areas.”
Graham Wheeler, Business Development Director – Mobotix Australia, echoed Redfern’s sentiments saying “We see definite growth opportunities for thermal applications in Australia and are delighted to be working with Madison to explore these further.”
“We are incredibly proud of the technology within our Mobotix thermal range, and are excited about the new verticals that this technology can be applied in.” finished Mr. Wheeler.
In addition, Madison and Mobotix will look to collaborate closely with industry organizations such as the Australian Professional Thermography Association, a group that promotes integrity and credibility in the Thermography profession, and shares knowledge across all industry groups.
