Internal inspection of automotive components during manufacture
Engines, powertrains and bodywork within the automotive industry require vigorous inspection during and post-manufacture. With precision and accuracy at the industry’s core, automotive manufacturers must invest in the best metrology tools to ensure thorough inspections are carried out, even on hard-to-reach parts. Engines and powertrains are extremely complex, with many individual components, most hidden deep within the engine itself. Non-destructive testing is essential, eliminating the need to dismantle parts which could cause unnecessary damage.
Using remote visual inspection tools within the automotive industry
A borescope or videoscope is a very useful inspection device for identifying defects inside engines/powertrains and bodywork that are difficult or impossible to see with the naked eye, the Hawkeye borescopes provide the best choice of products, depending on the component’s geometry.
Rigid Borescopes: The Pro Hardy is ideal for straight line inspection paths offering superior image clarity and are very durable suitable for factory use.
Flexible Borescopes: The Pro-Flexible is a flexible borescope available in different diameter with 4 way articulation, durable with very bright illumination.
Video Borescopes: The Q2 Video Borescope is one of the most advanced systems and feature miniature camera(s) at the tip transmitting live video to a screen with the ability to capture and store images.
Borescopes are part of the range of non-destructive testing (NDT) products that allow internal inspection with damage or disassembly and provide a fast and direct way to visually inspect a component.
