Aerospace: Remote Visual Inspection (RVI) allows quality control, maintenance and troubleshooting tasks to be performed with the minimum downtime, while maximizing safety, efficiency and operational time. Fiberscopes allow Inspection of turbines, combustion chambers, low pressure compressors and high pressure compressors, aircraft wings, structures brakes, other difficult-to-access areas and the Location of foreign object damage (FOD).

Automotive: Remote Visual Inspection (RVI) has many applications within the automotive industry. Fiberscopes provide solutions by allowing internal inspection of engine castings, cylinder bores, gearboxes, body shells and finished vehicles, from state-of-the-art racing cars to earth moving equipment. Investigation of a variety of problems without teardown is possible with RVI, including checking internal component condition for carbon deposits and wear, pinpointing sources of unwanted noise, identifying corrosion and confirming component failure. Fiberscopes can be used cost-effectively in automotive applications. Fiberscope Applications include:

  • Clutch - condition and thickness of lining - condition of springs of pressure plate and thrust bearing
  • Engine - valve damage, cylinder inspection, head gaskets and piston top
  • Body and Chassis - inspection of hollow members to detect damage cracks and corrosion
  • Transmission and differential - ring, bevel gear inspection - seals and shaft bearing inspection

Engineering & Manufacturing: Remote Visual Inspection (RVI) is providing cost-effective examination of internal structures without teardown. A fiberscope allows engineers to check for pitting, cracking, corrosion, erosion, weld and other defects, thus minimizing downtime and optimizing planned maintenance. Fiberscopes are used to examine pipelines, pumps, gearboxes, compressors, boilers, heat exchangers, headers, valves and air conditioning ducts.

Security: Fiberscopes are used effectively for bomb disposal (EOD / IEDD), counter terrorist activities, Hostage situations, smuggling of drugs, illegal aliens and other contraband. Fiberscopes are use in the search of buildings, vehicles, ships, aircraft, freight and difficult to access areas.

Quality Control: Remote Visual Inspection (RVI) allows manufactures to inspection components for defects. Fiberscopes provide the ability to inspect internal components, bore holes, castings and other manufactured items such as turbine blades, circuit boards, rifle barrels, welds.

Castings: Fiberscopes are used to inspect inside casting of engine blocks and other high quality casted components. Fiberscopes as small as 0.5 mm in diameter and larger are offered to accommodate all casting inspection needs.
