A new chapter in the field of aviation maintenance: the application of borescopes in aircraft engine cylinder maintenance

In the continuous development of the aviation maintenance field, borescopes have always played a pivotal role in ensuring flight safety and maintaining the good condition of aircraft engines.

After a long period of in-depth communication and discussion, VSNDT finally reached a strategic cooperation with a well-known aviation maintenance company and successfully provided it with an industrial endoscope, opening a new chapter in the field of aviation maintenance.

Project Background

With the rapid development of the aviation industry, the complexity and precision of aircraft engines are increasing day by day, and traditional detection methods can no longer meet the needs of modern aviation maintenance. An aviation maintenance company realized that the use of more advanced detection technology is the key to improving engine maintenance efficiency and ensuring flight safety. Therefore, the company has launched in-depth cooperation with VSNDT.

 

Testing requirements: 

 Probe diameter: according to the size of the cylinder's entry hole, select the appropriate probe diameter to ensure that the borescope can smoothly enter and cover the inspection area.

Viewing angle: a larger viewing angle (such as 90°, 120°, etc.) can provide a wider field of view and help detect potential defects.

Image resolution: high resolution (such as HD or 4K) can provide more detailed information and improve the accuracy of detection.

Lighting brightness: sufficient lighting brightness can ensure clear images even in dark environments.

Measurement accuracy: For borescopes that require precise measurement, the measurement accuracy should meet or exceed the required accuracy requirements, such as 0.01mm or higher.

Working length: depending on the depth and complexity of the cylinder, select the appropriate working length for the probe to ensure that the borescope can cover the entire inspection area.

Material and protection level: the material of the borescope should be corrosion-resistant and high-temperature resistant, and have a sufficient protection level (such as IP level) to adapt to complex detection environments.

Selection and Customization

In the communication with the aviation maintenance company, we learned about their specific needs for borescope technology. To this end, we provided a variety of borescope products with high resolution, high brightness and precise measurement function for them to choose from. At the same time, we also customized borescopes with a special probe diameter, field of view angle and working length for the customer based on the special structure and inspection environment of aircraft engine cylinder.

 

Project Implementation

During the project implementation, our technical team worked closely with engineers from the aviation maintenance company to complete the installation, testing and training of the borescope. We provided detailed operating instructions and technical support to ensure that they could master the use of the borescope and the precautions.

 

Effect display

After a period of use, the aviation maintenance companie reported that the inspection efficiency of engine cylinder has been significantly improved after using our borescope equipment. The high-definition image allows engineers to clearly see every detail inside the cylinder, and the precise measurement function makes the determination of defect size more accurate.

Looking to the future

This cooperation not only demonstrated the professional strength and technical advantage of VSNDT in the field of borescope manufacturing, but also laid a solid foundation for our cooperation with the aviation maintenance industry. In the future, we will continue to deepen the field of borescope technology, continuously innovate and optimize product performance, and provide more efficient and reliable detection tools for the aviation maintenance industry. At the same time, we also look forward to establishing a long-term cooperative relationship with more aviation maintenance companies and jointly promoting the development of aviation maintenance industry.
