Inspection camera adds remote focus

Supporting the launch are a range of new accessories such as a rugged back-pack; inspectors can scale ladders and gantry systems to reach their inspection points, knowing that the battery-powered system can last up to 4h.

The VISIO PROBE system has interchangeable inspection camera heads on a common cable and controller. The original system featured fixed focus cameras with a 25mm diameter forward view camera and a 45mm diameter Pan/Tilt camera. The latest version has added to these options with 2 new 45mm diameter cameras – one designed for general inspection with an 80° field of view, and the second designed for more detailed inspection with a 30° field of view. Both can be focussed remotely using the latest in liquid lens technology to keep the packaging compact.

“These new camera heads have had an immediate impact with our customers” states Paul Sacker from Crimson Industrial Vision, “the image quality and their small size allows inspections to be carried out in tighter spaces.”
