Combine Aven’s Cyclops and Inspector Lamp for Unprecedented Detail in Cable Wire Harness Applications
January 29, 2024 | AvenEstimated reading time: 1 minute
Aven, a full-service technology provider, is pleased to offer an advanced solution for harness and cable wiring applications by combining the Cyclops HDMI Digital Microscope with the versatile Inspector Lamp. This integration offers operators convenience and precision in inspection processes.
The Cyclops sets a new standard in inspection scopes with a 4x Lens. This innovative tool connects directly to a monitor through a 1080p HDMI output, providing operators with high-quality, real-time images on a large screen. The 21.5" HD monitor offers a comfortable and ergonomic viewing experience, eliminating the need to hunch over narrow microscope eyepieces.
With an exceptional working distance, the Cyclops allows operators to examine objects of various sizes with ease. The magnification ranges up to 132x, delivering stunning images for detailed inspection. The 2-megapixel sensor ensures exceptionally crisp and high-resolution visuals, enhancing the precision of inspection tasks.
The Cyclops Digital Microscope Cyclops can be used alongside the Inspector Lamp, providing versatile lighting options for different applications. 30 LED lights with adjustable intensity control allows operators to control the brightness and optimize lighting conditions for accurate inspections.
"By implementing the Cyclops HDMI along with our Inspector Lamp, we are offering a comprehensive solution for harness and cable wiring applications. This not only provides exceptional image quality but also ensures operators have flexible lighting options to enhance their inspection processes," said Mark Kanpurwala, VP Sales & Marketing at Aven.
Aven continues to push the boundaries of innovation in the optical and ergonomic tools industry, providing professionals with cutting-edge solutions for their inspection and precision needs. The company manufactures and distributes a range of high-performance, optical instruments and precision tools for microscopy, inspection and assembly.
