A pipe camera is a device used for visual inspection of the interior conditions of pipes. There are two primary types of pipe cameras: wired and robotic. In the wired type, a camera attached to a flexible cable is inserted into the pipe to capture images and footage of the pipe's interior. In contrast, the robotic type involves a camera mounted on a robotic arm, which can be maneuvered to navigate and inspect the inside of the pipe.
Pipe cameras find extensive applications in various industries, including factories, buildings, and tunnels. Wired pipe cameras are typically used for tasks such as cleaning and inspecting the interiors of pipes, while robotic pipe cameras excel in navigating and inspecting pipelines within tunnels and complex environments. These devices enable efficient identification of faults, assessment of issues, and thorough inspection and cleaning processes within pipes.
Furthermore, pipe cameras are available in various configurations to suit different needs. Some common types include fiber optic pipe cameras, wireless models, heat-resistant cameras, and waterproof variants. The choice of the appropriate type depends on the specific type of pipe being inspected and the environmental conditions in which the observation is taking place.
