Hikmicro expands into the global measuring device market

The strategic expansion of Hikmicro, a subsidiary of Hikvision, is an important step towards the company's goal of providing a comprehensive industrial platform that combines process control, predictive maintenance and production safety in a single, cost-effective solution. As one of the few manufacturers that handles both the design and manufacture of the chips, the development of basic algorithms and the complete quality control and production itself, Hikmicro has earned a reputation for making advanced thermal imaging technology accessible across industries. Hikmicro's chip-to-system approach has broken the traditional high-price monopoly of the industry giants, enabling more companies to adopt predictive maintenance and significantly improve their own production reliability. "Factories increasingly need affordable solutions for production process control and digital transformation," explains Stefan Li, Overseas Market Director of Hikmicro. "Our expansion into the measurement device sector is naturally based on our experience in thermal imaging. As a subsidiary of Hikvision founded in 2016, Hikmicro is one of the few manufacturers in the world that fully integrates chip design and manufacturing, core algorithm development, quality control and production in-house, rather than relying on suppliers."

New Hikmicro flowmeters

The new flowmeters build on Hikmicro's core competencies in sensor development, signal processing and calibration. The Coriolis mass flow meter FC00 offers a measurement accuracy of ±0.1% for liquids and ±0.5% for gases. Its AI-assisted temperature compensation ensures a density accuracy of ≤±0.001 g/cm³, while the integrated diagnostic function monitors system integrity. The device enables ultra-fast digital processing with 8000 samples per second, which significantly improves measurement reliability and response times even in demanding industrial environments. The FU00 ultrasonic flow meter achieves an accuracy of ±0.5% in water applications and features a non-invasive design that avoids pressure loss and downtime. To ensure optimal operation, an intelligent AI continuously evaluates signal quality and probe performance. Although the devices themselves offer impressive accuracy and performance data, they are part of a larger goal: to help the industry digitize processes without incurring the high costs that have delayed or even prevented the adoption of such solutions in the past.
