TBT

Incheon, South Korea – TBT Co., Ltd., a leading developer of advanced thermal imaging technologies, is drawing attention for its state-of-the-art production and testing facilities housed at its newly built headquarters in Incheon. Since its founding in 2002, TBT has continuously invested in technological advancement and facility upgrades, building a robust manufacturing infrastructure that underpins its global competitiveness in defense, security, and industrial thermal imaging solutions.

More than a simple assembly line, TBT's Incheon headquarters serves as an integrated engineering and production hub capable of handling everything from R&D to volume manufacturing. The site boasts seven core production and testing facilities that meet or exceed international standards.

Key highlights include a Class 1,000 clean room, high-precision collimator system, temperature and humidity test chambers, hoist equipment for waterproof testing, and a 6-axis motion simulator for gimbal validation. These facilities are essential for validating the performance and environmental durability of high-precision thermal sensors and stabilized gimbal systems.

“Our production line is designed not only for mass production but also to accommodate rapid prototyping, environmental testing, and quality assurance — all under one roof,” a company representative explained. “This integrated system enables fast development cycles and consistent product quality.”

TBT’s advanced infrastructure is one of the reasons the company maintains close partnerships with leading defense contractors such as Hanwha Defense and exports solutions to coast guards, UAV platforms, and industrial monitoring systems across the globe.

With over half of its workforce consisting of engineers, TBT is deeply rooted in technology-driven innovation. The company holds numerous patents related to camera systems and has acquired key certifications including ISO 9001, ISO 14001, and Strategic Commodity Management Level AA — a testament to its commitment to quality and compliance.

By combining advanced equipment, skilled personnel, and relentless R&D, TBT's Incheon headquarters stands as a cornerstone of Korea’s future in thermal imaging technology.
