Measuring Instruments and Inspection Systems - Precision, Control, and Safety in Everyday Professional Life
Blockages in pipes, clogged lines, dirty ducts, or hard-to-see cavities with loose screws or misplaced components: Time and again, situations arise where only a razor-sharp image or video provides clarity. Visual inspections make it possible to initiate targeted follow-up measures or to document conditions via images or film. Pipe and inspection cameras – optionally with a flexible endoscope gooseneck or angled camera – offer an ideal solution for this.
For the correct planning and billing of cable and route lengths, electronic distance measuring devices such as laser distance meters or length measuring devices integrated into cable pulling systems are preferably used. These can also be used as standalone length measuring devices and offer significant time savings and higher efficiency compared to folding rules and measuring tapes.

Are you familiar with the following problems in simple house installations?
How heavily soiled is this ventilation duct, drain pipe, or this pipe? Is there still a way through?
A robust and waterproof camera head with extensive area lighting can be pushed into the cavity with a fiberglass rod to inspect the situation and capture it with images or video. Electronic documentation may also be required.

No floor plans available, but I need to know the length and width in a complex hall so that sufficient material can be ordered:
With a laser distance measuring device, length after length can be measured and added. Or an area can be calculated immediately.
► Our recommendations: RM80 Laser Distance Meter, precise measurements up to 80m

When assembling connection cables, the same cable length is always required.
Instead of measuring with a folding rule, it would be simple if a signal sounds at the desired cable length so that the identical length could always be cut off.
