2.Light weight and Portable, Facilitating Long – term Operations
Aviation inspection often requires staff to hold equipment for extended periods to carefully observe various aircraft components. Traditional inspection equipment, if too heavy, can easily cause fatigue during operation. This not only reduces work efficiency but may also lead to negligence due to fatigue, potentially overlooking hidden safety hazards. The Yateks industrial endoscope takes this into account, keeping the overall weight within 2.0KG. This handheld and lightweight design significantly reduces the burden on the staff. Just as a doctor can use a lightweight stethoscope to conduct long – term diagnoses with ease, aviation inspectors can hold the Yateks industrial endoscope and perform detection work for several consecutive hours without significant arm soreness. This allows them to maintain a high level of focus and operational precision. For example, when inspecting aircraft turbine blades one by one, the staff can flexibly adjust the angle of the endoscope and operate stably for a long time, ensuring that no minor cracks or damages on any blade are overlooked.
3.Diverse Lenses and diameter, Adaptable to Complex Aviation Components
The structure of an aircraft is extremely complex, and the inspection requirements for different components vary greatly. From the narrow gaps between turbine blades to the vast interior of the engine and the complex structure of the turbine, inspection equipment needs to be highly adaptable. The Yateks industrial endoscope offers a variety of lens diameters ranging from 0.85 – 8.4mm, and the longest pipeline can reach 20M, perfectly meeting various inspection scenarios. For the narrow gaps between turbine blades, the 0.85mm ultra – thin lens is like a highly skilled micro – sculptor, carefully penetrating into the gaps. Without damaging the blades, it clearly presents every detail on the blade surface, and even the tiniest cracks are exposed. When inspecting the interior of large components such as engines and turbines, the 8.4mm lens combined with the 20M long pipeline is like a flexible detection dragon, smoothly reaching the deep interior from the external entrance. It conducts a comprehensive and detailed scan of the entire interior space, ensuring that no corner is missed. Whether it is inspecting the assembly quality of engine internal components during the new aircraft manufacturing stage or the regular maintenance inspection of in – service engines, the Yateks industrial endoscope can perform tasks excellently with its diverse lens specifications.
4.High brightness,high resolution image, and Wide – angle depth of view, Penetrating dark and vast Spaces
The interior of an aircraft engine is a dark and spacious environment, and traditional inspection tools struggle to clearly observe the internal conditions in such an environment. The Yateks industrial endoscope is equipped with a high – brightness fiber optic light source, which is like a bright dawn, instantly penetrating the darkness and illuminating every corner of the engine interior as brightly as daylight. Even the deepest and most hidden parts can clearly reveal their true state. Super-wide viewing angle and super-large depth of field are suitable for inspection in various complex environments.Inspectors can quickly grasp the situation of a large – area region inside the engine without frequently moving the lens. For example, when inspecting the engine combustion chamber, by positioning the lens once and using its wide field of view, most of the inner wall can be observed, and problems such as ablation and carbon deposition can be discovered in a timely manner. The perfect combination of high – brightness lighting and a wide field of view greatly improves inspection efficiency, reduces inspection time, and also lowers the risk of missed detection due to limited vision.
5. Flexible Pipeline, Overcoming Obstacles in Pipeline Inspection
The interior of the engine is filled with crisscrossing and winding oil pipes. These pipelines are not only narrow but also have many bends, posing great challenges to inspection work. The Yateks industrial endoscope has a 360 – degree electro-motor articulation. As if it has a freely rotating “wrist,” enabling it to move freely through complex pipelines and easily handle various bends and narrow spaces. Whether it is a right – angled bend or a spiral – shaped oil pipe, it can flexibly adjust its direction and accurately deliver the lens to the position that needs inspection. Just like an experienced maze explorer, it can move freely in the intricate pipeline maze. During the inspection process, inspectors can easily control the steering of the pipeline through the operation handle and conduct a comprehensive observation of the inner wall of the pipeline, ensuring that problems such as inner wall corrosion, weld defects, and foreign matter blockages are discovered in a timely manner, providing strong support for the safe operation of the engine.
6.Durable & Replaceable Video Probes
Robust and durable — the host has a rugged shell and structure, the probe IP67 level waterproof, the probe part of the use of special materials and processes, with good abrasion resistance and corrosion resistance.
7. Waterproof and Oil – resistant, Adaptable to Harsh Inspection Environments
The environment of aviation inspection work is often very complex, with oil stains and water vapor everywhere. Ordinary inspection equipment is easily damaged in such an environment, causing the inspection work to be unable to proceed normally. The Yateks industrial endoscope reaches an IP67 waterproof rating, which means it can effectively prevent dust intrusion and can be immersed in water 1 meter deep for 30 minutes without being affected. When facing the common harsh environments of oil stains and water vapor in aircraft engine inspections, the Yateks industrial endoscope can still operate stably and maintain excellent performance. Whether in an oil – filled environment inside the engine or when inspecting external aircraft pipelines that may come into contact with water vapor, it can reliably complete the inspection task, providing inspectors with accurate and clear images and demonstrating extremely high reliability and durability.
