SKF has introduced two new
portable, compact, easy-to-use, multifunction
Stroboscopes, allowing
rotating or reciprocating machinery to
be inspected safely and efficiently
while in operation.

The TKRS stroboscopes are
suitable for both machine operators
and maintenance technicians,
enabling a wide range of reciprocating
equipment such as fan blades,
couplings, gear wheels, machine tool
spindles and belt drives to be
inspected in running operation.

The stroboscopes enable the flash
rate to be adjusted in seconds. The
useful phase shift feature allows the
object of interest to be positioned for
easy viewing. TKRS 10 has a
maximum flash rate of 12,500 flashes
per minute and a xenon tube light
source. For more demanding
applications, the TKRS 20 has a
maximum flash rate of 300,000 flashes
per minute and a powerful LED light
source. Additionally, it enables up to
10 user programmable flash rate
memories to be quickly recalled.
