PCHI optics have been developed by Opto Engineering® to easily inspect holes, cavities and containers. Unlike common optics or so called “pinhole lenses” which can only image flat fields of view, hole inspection optics are specifically designed to image both the bottom of a hole and its vertical walls.
 

Thanks to the large view angle (>82°) and innovative optical design, these lenses are compatible with a wide range of object diameters and thicknesses. Hole inspection optics are the perfect solution to inspect a variety of different object shapes such as cylinders, cones, holes, bottles or threaded objects.
 

New and improved models are now available, providing the ease-of-use of an upgraded focusing mechanism (PCHI MF) and the flexibility of an immediate focusing thanks to the integration of liquid lens technology into the lens’ optical design (PCHI AF).
