Gradient Lens Corporation has announced the launch of the new
Hawkeye Q2 HD Video Borescope, designed to take visual inspection to the next level. With advanced features including a dual 0deg and 90deg camera view that can be easily switched at the press of a button, the Q2 offers unmatched flexibility in visual inspections — even around corners. It is available in the UK and Europe from Market Harborough-based
Optimax Imaging and Inspection.
Available in 3.9 and 6mm diameters, the Q2 brings modular insertion tubes into play, enabling users to effortlessly change between tubes to suit various inspection requirements without needing to invest in multiple systems. It continues the legacy of the popular Hawkeye V2 and V3 models, which debuted in 2012, by incorporating cutting-edge technology in a compact, durable, and portable design. With four-way joystick articulation, image and video capture, and an impressive 4hr battery life, the Q2 is both highly functional and user friendly.
“By combining a dual-view camera system and the ability to swap insertion tubes, the Q2 is a valuable tool for professionals who need high versatility without breaking the bank. It is perfect for those with varied inspection needs across different lengths and diameters.”
Key features of the Hawkeye Q2 HD Video Borescope include: Dual 0-deg and 90-deg camera view — switch between straight-ahead and side-view inspections with ease; modular insertion tubes — change tubes for different inspection applications without needing separate systems; four-way joystick articulation — precision control to manoeuvre in tight or complex areas; crystal clear image and video capture — capture high-definition stills and videos with ease; compact, lightweight design — built for portability and durability; extended battery life — operates for up to four hours on a single charge.
The Q2 is ideal for a wide range of applications, including aircraft maintenance, casting inspection, fuel systems, hydraulics, metal machining, power generation, welding inspection, and orbital welds. Its ability to inspect tight and difficult-to-access areas makes it an exceptional tool for the precise examination of orbital welds, ensuring the highest quality standards are met.
