At a time when the global automobile ownership continues to grow, the automotive aftermarket service field has become a huge industrial chain. With its visual and non-destructive detection characteristics, industrial endoscopes have become the core tools for fault diagnosis, maintenance and customer service in automotive aftermarket services.
Specific application scenarios of industrial endoscopes in the automotive aftermarket
In-depth inspection and maintenance of engine systems
Visual diagnosis of carbon deposits
Through the spark plug hole or cylinder head inspection hole, insert the endoscope to visually observe the distribution and thickness of carbon deposits in the combustion chamber, valve, and piston top, and provide a basis for fuel system cleaning (such as walnut sand cleaning the intake duct).
Case: When the customer reported that the vehicle's fuel consumption increased, the endoscope was used to take photos of carbon deposits, and the black carbon deposit layer on the back of the valve was shown to the customer to explain the impact of carbon deposits on fuel atomization.
Internal fault location of the cylinder body
Detect problems such as scratches on the cylinder wall, broken piston rings, and damaged valve sealing surfaces (such as observing whether the piston ring is stuck when burning oil) to avoid blind disassembly of the engine.
Gearbox and transmission system maintenance
Gearbox internal wear detection
Through the oil pan observation hole or the heat dissipation oil pipe interface, check the gear meshing surface wear, clutch plate burning and valve body oil circuit blockage problems, and predict the gearbox shift setback or abnormal noise failure.
Differential and drive shaft hidden danger inspection
Detect differential gear cracks and drive shaft universal joint wear to prevent sudden failure during driving.
Chassis and body structure safety inspection
Chassis key component flaw detection
Check the chassis longitudinal beam, shock absorber support, and steering knuckle rust and cracks (such as hidden damage after the accident car is repaired) to ensure driving safety.
Body welding point and anti-corrosion layer inspection
Perform endoscope inspection on the body floor and door welding points to determine whether there is cold welding or rust (such as the body cavity inspection of the water-soaked car).
Maintenance of the three-electric system of new energy vehicles
Internal inspection of power battery packs
Observe the welding points of the battery cell connection row, the state of the insulation layer and the sealing of the shell through the reserved inspection holes to prevent short circuit risks (such as internal inspection of the battery pack after a collision).
Fault diagnosis of motor and electronic control system
Check whether the motor stator winding is damp and whether the solder joints of the electronic control module circuit board are virtual, and assist in locating the power interruption fault of new energy vehicles.
Core advantages of industrial endoscopes in aftermarket services
Improve fault diagnosis efficiency and reduce misjudgment rate
Visual evidence support, reduce misdiagnosis costs
Non-disassembly detection reduces maintenance costs and time
Avoid excessive disassembly and extend the life of parts
Enhance customer trust and service premium ability
Visual communication tools: show customers fault details through videos or photos, eliminate "over-repair" concerns, improve service transparency, and provide pricing basis for value-added services
Industrial endoscopes are not only fault detection tools in aftermarket services, but also a bridge connecting technology and customers - through visual and data-based detection methods, they not only improve maintenance efficiency and accuracy, but also enhance customer trust through transparent services, becoming an indispensable and important tool in automotive aftermarket services.
