Boroscope Inspection

Borescopes are visual inspection tools designed to examine hard-to-reach areas without the need for disassembly. They consist of a small camera or lens mounted at the end of a flexible or rigid tube, which transmits images to a viewing eyepiece or display screen.

feature a non-bendable relay tube, making them easier to use but less versatile. They are not suitable for inspecting areas with curves or corners.

use a bendable relay tube, allowing for navigation around curves and corners for a more detailed inspection. Due to their maneuverability, they require proper training to use effectively, ensuring accurate navigation and image capture in complex areas.

Basic Components of a Borescope:

Either an eyepiece or a monitor that displays the live feed from the camera, allowing the user to observe the inspection area in real time.

Basic Components of a Borescope:

Manages the camera's movement and image capture functions, providing options for zooming, focusing, and recording.

Basic Components of a Borescope:

A flexible or rigid tube that houses the camera and fiber optics, designed to navigate through tight or hard-to-reach spaces.

Basic Components of a Borescope:

Includes a light source, often LED, to illuminate the inspection area, ensuring clear visibility even in dark or confined environments.

Basic Components of a Borescope:

Records and processes images or videos captured by the camera, often allowing for storage, playback, and analysis.

Basic Components of a Borescope:

Fiber optic cables that transmit light from the source to the inspection site, enhancing the clarity of the viewed area.

Conducted in response to emergency situations, such as a bird strike, to quickly assess potential damage to the engine.
