Boroscope

An optical device consisting of a rigid or flexible tube with an eyepiece on one end, an objective lens on the other linked together by a relay optical system in between. Optical fiber is surrounding around the optical system for illumination of remote objects. It is a useful and valuable tool in industries for remote visual inspections. Different types of Boroscope include
  • Flexible Boroscope – It includes a bundle of optical fibers which divide the image into pixels. Its also called fiberscope.
  • Rigid boroscope – This boroscope is similar to flexible but generally provide a superior image at lower cost compared to a flexible borescope. It is made for use in Vautomotive cylinders, fuel injectors and hydraulic manifold bodies, and  gunsmithing.
  • Video Boroscope -  It is  similar to the flexible boroscope but uses a miniature video camera at the end of the flexible tube. The end of the insertion tube includes a light which makes it possible to capture video or still images deep within equipment, engines and other dark spaces. It also helps to avoid eye fatigue.
