Borescopes & Videoscopes

A borescope is essentially a miniature camera (or cameras) mounted on either a rigid or flexible tube that can be inserted into hard-to-access areas. The camera captures HD images and video for inspection purposes. It’s used to visualise the internal areas of assets, such as engines, pipework and machinery. 

Fibreoptic technology and/or tiny cameras capture images from deep within the asset. These are transmitted back to a monitor or computer for assessment. A borescope is either flexible or rigid, depending on the shape and complexity of the asset it needs to navigate. 

Yes, we certainly do. Our range is extensive and includes video borescopes, rigid models, flexible options and waterproof borescopes, all of which come in a wide variety of lengths and diameters. You can take advantage of our borescopes rental for short, mid or long-term hire.  

In a word, yes. Borescopes are essentially quite simple to use – plus every Nexxis hire or lease comes with full training as to how to operate your borescope camera for optimal use.

They sure can! Some models are specifically designed to be used underwater and are a vital inspection tool for subsea, marine environments and anywhere that has submerged equipment that needs to be inspected.

At Nexxis, our borescope hire also means that we take care of all maintenance, so you know that your equipment will always be operating at optimal level. 

Every asset is different, meaning the borescope camera that best suits your requirements will be influenced by various elements, including its size, depth and ease of access. Part of the Nexxis difference is our assistance in selecting the right kit for your needs. Whether you’re interested in leasing, renting or purchasing, our experienced team will help determine the correct borescope to return the very best inspection results.

They come with features that allow them to withstand heat (or cold), making them suitable for the inspection of assets that need to be inspected under heat duress or where cooling the equipment would result in lengthy periods of downtime.
