PCBP series

Boroscopic probes for panoramic cavity imaging and measurement from inside

Tech info

PCBP probes are used to inspect holed objects such as engine parts, containers and tubes whose hidden features can only be controlled by introducing a probe into the cavity. The catadioptric (refracting + reflecting) optical design ensures much higher resolution than fiber-based probes and enables the complete 360° inner view of the entire cavity. Boroscopic probes are intended to be handled by a robot arm or S.C.A.R.A. in order to scan even the deepest cavities. Built-in illumination keeps the device very compact and makes it suitable for simple 3D applications by means of panoramic triangulation techniques.

KEY ADVANTAGES

  • Inspection of cavities from inside
    Hidden internal features and defects are clearly viewed
  • High resolution
    The catadioptric design enables the detection of tiny defects over a very wide view angle
  • Flaw detection
    Coarse deformations revealed using direct illumination
  • Surface defect enhancement
    Mixing direct and indirect illumination makes it possible to emphasize tiny and scarcely visible defects.

Inspection Area

PCBP probes can image cavities whose diameter ranges from 5 mm to 100 mm and over: the table below shows the inspection range allowed.

Diameter (mm) Height (mm) Suggested P/N model
5 3 PCBPN013
10 6 PCBPN013, PCBPN013-WG
15 9 PCBPN013, PCBPN013-WG
20 12 PCBPN013, PCBPN013-WG
25 9 PCBP0xx
30 12 PCBP0xx
40 18 PCBP0xx
50 23 PCBP0xx
60 29 PCBP0xx
80 41 PCBP0xx
100 53 PCBP0xx

An integrated LED source (for PCBP0xx and PCBPN013-WG) illuminates the cavity both diffusely and directly. The diagram on the left shows the different illumination areas. Diffused illumination is used for defect detection and component inspection.

Direct/specular illumination can be efficiently used to check for surface deformation on metal and highly reflective objects as well as to measure the hole diameter.

The image of the cavity covers around 50% of the detector height; the continuous red line indicates the bottom view of the cavity, the dashed line shows the upper view  while the dash-dotted line refers to the lateral view.

The PCBPTIP optical tip can be easily replaced

The LED illumination device is integrated into the unit. The optical tip of the probe PCBPTIP (for PCBP0xx) can be easily replaced in case of damage.

Lockable focusing mechanism

The best focus is achieved by means of a lockable focusing mechanism. Power supply cables exit the device nearby the C-mount.
