What is a Iphone Borescope ?
The term Iphone Borescope is often used for any type of visual inspection tool that can be used to view something remotely. However, technically speaking, a Iphone Borescope is a rigid, non-flexible optical instrument that has a lens on one end and can be inserted in a straight line into any object, machinery, or engine that you want to inspect. The camera generates a live feed allowing the inspection team to view the interior components that are magnified for a clearer image.
With technological advancements, the Iphone Borescope technology has only grown and now includes variations such as fiberscopes, videoscopes, and micro borescopes, etc.
Using Iphone Borescope for Inspection
Iphone Borescopes allow inspection teams to see components of machinery and equipment that they would not be able to see with their eyes unless they dismantle the entire thing. The Iphone Borescope lens acts as an eye at the end of a cable that can be inserted manually into different parts of the machinery and shows magnified images of the interior.
By navigating the cable effectively through the interior of the machine, turbine, or engine, a person can assess the condition of the equipment and identify any areas that need repair or maintenance work. The borescope transmits the feed into a video monitor, which often has added features of saving images and videos that can be invaluable for future inspections and maintenance of the machinery.
