The high-speed video cameras in Photrons FASTCAM Mini AX, UX and WX product lines offer twice the memory from previous 16GB models, now at 32GB.

SAN DIEGO, CA -- June 9, 2016 -- ¬¬¬¬¬Photron, Inc., (www.photron.com) a global leader and manufacturer of high-speed cameras and software for slow motion analysis, announces the new 32GB memory option for the FASTCAM Mini AX, FASTCAM Mini UX, and FASTCAM Mini WX High Speed Camera Systems. The new memory option is doubled at 32GB; other memory options still available are 4 GB, 8 GB, and 16 GB. Photrons recently introduced product families are also renowned for their remarkable light sensitivity. The Mini AX family provides genuine ISO 40,000 (mono) and ISO 16,000 (color), as measured to the industrys true ISO Ssat 12232 standard, with the IR filter retained as per ISO 12232, not removed to produce fictitious ‘T values. The camera systems have high-performance Gigabit Ethernet interfaces, making it convenient and easy for the user to view and analyze slow motion video data from their desktop or laptop PC.


With the new memory option of 32GB, Photrons FASTCAM Mini cameras are exceptionally well-suited for demanding high-frame-rate imaging applications such as onboard and off-board automotive safety testing, biomechanics, material sciences, military/aerospace research, fluid dynamics such as PIV, life sciences, and critical laboratory research. The compact, rugged FASTCAM Mini camera systems are also designed for high-G, high-shock environments, tested to 100 G,
10 ms, 6 axes.
The superior light sensitivity featured in Photrons FASTCAM Mini camera systems enable the video capture of extremely high speed events, without the need for additional, and often expensive and high-temperature-generating lighting packages. Superior light sensitivity also enables faster frame rates, shorter shutter speeds, and/or greater depths of field, under the same lighting conditions, to be used without added illumination.

T.J. Davies' Retention Knobs

T.J. Davies' Retention Knobs

Our retention knobs are manufactured above international standards or to machine builder specifications. Retention knobs are manufactured utilizing AMS-6274/AISI-8620 alloy steel drawn in the United States. Threads are single-pointed on our lathes while manufacturing all other retention knob features to ensure high concentricity. Our process ensures that our threads are balanced (lead in/lead out at 180 degrees.) Each retention knob is carburized (hardened) to 58-62HRC, and case depth is .020-.030. Core hardness 40HRC. Each retention knob is coated utilizing a hot black oxide coating to military specifications. Our retention knobs are 100% covered in black oxide to prevent rust. All retention knob surfaces (not just mating surfaces) have a precision finish of 32 RMA micro or better: ISO grade 6N. Each retention knob is magnetic particle tested and tested at 2.5 times the pulling force of the drawbar. Certifications are maintained for each step in the manufacturing process for traceability.
