Cast Magnesium-Alloy Chassis for Impact Resistance

The main component of the IPLEX FX base unit chassis is Magnesium — renowned for its strength and light weight. A typical material used for industrial environment equipment, Magnesium was chosen to provide the impact resistance and solid base that withstands the knocks and bumps that commonly occur to industrial videoscopes. The IPLEX FX survived the repetitive 4 feet drop test for compliance to MIL-STD 810F.*

*MIL-STD (The United States Defense Standard) is used to help achieve standardization objectives by the U.S. Department of Defense.

Cast Magnesium

Rubber bumperThe Chassis corners are protected by rubber bumpers to reduce the impact force created by the typical bumps and knocks of an industrial workplace. Magnesium-Alloy chassisThe crush resistant cast magnesium chassis is the core of the IPLEX FX mechanical design strength. The extra durability in construction results in extra protection against equipment damages.



Abrasion Resistant Insertion Tube

The most critical component of any remote visual inspection tool is the insertion tube. It performs the basic requirement of accessing the inspection area and frequently navigating through narrow paths with abrasive and rough surfaces.

Tough TaperFlex coilThe Olympus Tough TaperFlex coil features graduated flexibility for easy scope maneuverability and navigation.

Inside resin tubeArticulation wires and electronics only. With LED illumination at the scope tip, fiber optic bundles are not necessary.

High-density braided exteriorHigh density outer braid fulfills durability and 3x greater fray resistance without compromising the flexibility and ability to navigate through the most difficult inspections.

Pliable distal endTo navigate through tight bends or corners, minimum bend radius and shorter rigid tip sections are an essential design criteria for our scope tip, optics and tip adapters.
