BORESCOPE INSPECTION

Large industrial and commercial machinery, equipment, and lines like turbines, HVAC units, and water/sewage need to be regularly inspected and evaluated with the utmost care.


What is a Borescope Inspection?

Using an optical tool called a borescope allows this machinery and equipment to be internally inspected without causing any damage. This is a specialty instrument that is used to examine spaces and areas that are not visible to the naked eye. A borescope is commonly used to inspect:

  • Industrial and commercial machinery and equipment
  • Gas and steam turbines
  • HVAC units
  • Water and sewage lines
  • Diesel engines
  • Automotive and truck engines
  • Aircraft engines
  • Machined or cast parts
  • And more


To prevent unnecessary downtime and repair, borescope inspections should be performed on a regular basis.

Uses for a Borescope Inspection

Borescope inspection services are implemented to make an assessment of equipment and machinery to analyze their structural integrity. For example, it is critical to make sure that the surface finish and all parts of a piece of machinery are smooth and unbroken. A borescope inspection of a piece of equipment, for instance, would seek to identify cracks, holes, or other imperfections in the interior. Our borescope inspection services can determine problems with welds, detect corrosion issues, identify blockages, examine for presence of cracks, as well as any other discontinuities.
