20 years of Optris – 20 years of non-contact temperature measurement
17.04.2023 | Optris celebrates its 20th company anniversary: As a leading provider of infrared technology, Berlin-based Optris GmbH has specialized in precise and non-contact temperature measurement since it was founded in 2003. With his know-how Made in Germany and a wide range of infrared thermometers and thermal imaging cameras, the manufacturer operates worldwide and has established itself as a reliable partner for numerous industries.
Managing Director Dr.-Ing. Ulrich Kienitz founded Optris GmbH with the aim of enriching the range of measuring temperature sensors with innovative measuring and application principles.
The innovative technologies from Optris enable users from the areas industry and Researchto measure the temperature in real time and with the highest accuracy. The devices are based on the latest developments and are regularly the subject of research and development projects.
In the meantime, the company has grown into one of the world's leading companies for non-contact temperature measurement. Optris develops portable and stationary infrared thermometers and thermal imaging cameras that measure temperature easy and the work secure . make
Infrared thermometers and thermal imaging cameras
The applications for infrared temperature measurements are diverse: They are used worldwide in numerous applications, such as in the Automotive industry, Food industry, the chemical and pharmaceutical industry and in the Building automation.
Infrared thermometers and thermal imaging cameras are also used in the Metal-, Glass- And Plasticindustry and in the electronics industry. In the Medical Technology and life science, the products support research. They are used, for example, in early fire detection in the wood processing industry, in recycling in waste processing or in modern battery cell production.
Two decades at the cutting edge
In the past 20 years, Optris has constantly reinvented itself and continuously developed its products. With the so-called micromachining the manufacturer greatly optimized the performance parameters in the 2010s and thus improved the price-performance ratio.
“This allows our products to be used as standard in mechanical and plant engineering,” reports Dr. Ulrich Kienitz, Managing Director of Optris GmbH. Modern measuring systems reliably detect even 25 μm small objects in the ambient temperature range from -50° to 3000 °C within a few milliseconds.
High export share of 75%
As an international company, Optris is extremely globally active. "Right from the start, Optris focused on building a broad distribution network, including in OEM sales," says Dr. Kienitz.
Abroad, people trust in the competence of the Berliners: Der export content of the product portfolio is 75%. The US and Asian markets are strong growth markets for the manufacturer of optical measurement technology. Optris GmbH would like to further expand its international business in the future through technological innovations in infrared thermometers and infrared cameras as well as a local presence.

Optris aligns logo to revenue trend
24.01.2029/1/2019 | On January XNUMX, XNUMX, Optris GmbH changed the Subline of your logo: “Infrared thermometers” became “infrared measurements”. The change was made because the infrared camera product group now accounts for almost half of total sales.
Right from the start, the founder of Optris GmbH, Dr. Ulrich Kienitz, it is of great importance that the products meet high technical requirements and are industrially versatile. “Measure temperature without contact, stably and correctly,” says Dr. Kienitz the most important device function in a nutshell. To ensure this, the development of industrial accessories such as cooling housings or air purge attachments was also pushed ahead.
When the manufacturer got involved in the development and production of infrared cameras, the main products on the market were high-priced cameras for the R&D sector thermal processes take place and there are high ambient temperatures, dusty air and strong electromagnetic interference fields," explains Dr. Kienitz the price-performance strategy that is still valid today.
The cameras are designed to be compact and robust, so that they are widely used in all branches of industry. There are now infrared cameras with a wide variety of technical parameters and for special industries. The entry-level model Xi 80 is available for less than 1000 euros.

November 23.11.2016, 3 | “With our pyrometer CT P5 we can now determine temperature data on very thin plastic films with a thickness of 16 to XNUMX micrometers, something that was previously impossible,” explains Dr.-Ing. Ulrich Kienitz at SPS IPC Drives. We asked the managing director of Optris GmbH in Berlin the following questions:
- who is actually Optris?
- You will soon be expanding your capacities at the Berlin location tenfold over 3000 m² since the start in 2003: How did you manage that?
- What Highlights are you presenting at the SPS IPC Drives 2016?
- You have numerous this year Workshops organized: Why shouldn't your users - and those who are supposed to be - miss this?
- What new developments can temperature measurement technology enthusiasts look forward to in the year 2017 be happy?
- What happens next with the square meters: which ones entrepreneurial goals do you pursue long-term?
