Video Endoscopes and Boroscopes Available at Endo-Tech
Both video endoscopes and boroscopes can be used for non-invasive inspections, during which the inspected object is not damaged. The devices mainly differ in appearance and construction. However, their main purpose remains the same – both are used to observe the surroundings, usually inside machines, when we want to avoid dismantling them for tests. Often, repairs or cleaning can be performed without opening the interior of the device.
When to use a boroscope?
A boroscope is simply constructed from a lens, a handle, and a tube with its own independent light source. Its tube maintains a certain shape but is also quite flexible – there are versions with different levels of stiffness available. Various diameters and lengths of the observation tubes, as well as viewing angles, are offered. At Endo-Tech, boroscopes are available with several types of light sources – LED, halogen, xenon, and ultraviolet.
The device allows for very delicate and discreet observation inside an object. However, if you want to use the boroscope for archival purposes instead of diagnostics, you can easily purchase a camera and documentation station for it. We offer both stationary boroscopes, suitable for workshops or laboratories, as well as portable devices for field use.
When is a video endoscope needed?
Unlike the boroscope, which is used to examine simple spaces, a video endoscope is used when we need to inspect curved or complex spaces. The cables of video endoscopes are flexible and can easily be inserted into even the hardest-to-reach corners. Instead of looking directly into an opening, the image is viewed on a monitor screen. Since the screen is touch-sensitive, recordings can be conveniently saved, and the parameters controlling the probe can be adjusted.
Without video endoscopes, work in fields such as automotive, medicine, plumbing, aviation, or chimney sweeping would often be impossible.
Endo-Tech offers devices with straight and side-viewing probes, available in various cable thicknesses and lengths. The probes are integrated with touch monitors and a user-friendly operating system. The most advanced models offer 3D image reporting, depth measurement, and point-to-point length measurement. Powerful batteries, which need regular charging, often come with a practical power bank that extends operating time.
