Video-Borescope inspection is used by TCR Arabia for visual inspection work where the area to be inspected is inaccessible by other means, or where accessibility may require by destructive, time-consuming and/or expensive dismounting activities.

​

Borescopes are mostly used in non-destructive testing techniques for recognizing defects or imperfections. Borescopes are commonly used in the visual inspection of piping/equipment in refinery’s and petrochemical plants, aircraft engines, aero-derivative industrial gas turbines, steam turbines, diesel engines, and automotive and truck engines.

 

Gas and steam turbines require particular attention because of safety and maintenance requirements. Borescope inspection of engines can be used to prevent unnecessary maintenance, which can become extremely costly for large turbines. They are also used in the manufacturing of machined or cast parts to inspect critical interior surfaces for burrs, surface finish or complete through-holes. primitive rigid borescopes were used to examine the interior bores (hence "bore" scope) of large guns for defects.
