Television inspection (TVI) has become a key technology in many industrial sectors. Used to examine the interior of hard-to-reach infrastructures, this method plays an essential role in risk prevention, predictive maintenance and cost optimization. Thanks to advances in robotics and artificial intelligence, inspections are now faster, more precise and, above all, safer.
Among the major players in this field, Multinnov has made its mark with innovative solutions such as the Stereo2 and the Roview2 robot. Designed for the exploration of confined environments, these tools enable advanced surveillance without interrupting industrial operations.
In this article, we'll first look at the principles and challenges of TV inspection. Then, we'll look at the features and applications of the Stereo2 and Roview2 before exploring how these solutions represent a technological revolution for the industry.
What is a television inspection?
Televisual inspection (TVI) is a method that uses on-board cameras to examine the condition of infrastructure. This process is particularly used in :
- Sewage pipes and networks
- Industrial ducts and technical ducts
- Chimneys, vats and storage tanks
- Tunnels and underground structures
Why carry out a TV inspection?
TV inspection is a key element in industrial maintenance. It enables :
- Prevent structural risks : early detection of defects (cracks, corrosion, obstructions) prevents major accidents.
- Optimize interventions : repairs are more precise and less costly thanks to detailed diagnostics.
- Minimize service interruptions : ITV allows inspection without stopping production, an asset for sensitive industries.
- Enhance operator safety : by reducing human exposure to hazardous environments.
Traditionally, these inspections were carried out by human teams equipped with manual cameras, often requiring the use of scaffolding or specialized vehicles. Today, thanks to inspection robots and drones, these operations are much more efficient and less risky.
Stereo2 and Roview2: solutions tailored to industrial needs
Stereo2: the indoor inspection drone
The Stereo2 from Multinnov is a drone designed for inspections at height and in confined spaces. Unlike conventional drones, it is optimized for use in closed, complex environments.
- Main features: High-definition camera for detailed inspection of structures.
- Advanced stabilization system for precise, safe flight.
- Autonomous navigation and remote control for access to difficult areas.
- Industrial applications: Inspection of industrial chimneys to check the condition of coatings and the presence of cracks.
- Vat and tank monitoring without the need for emptying or human intervention.
- Control of transport infrastructures (railway tunnels, technical galleries).
Thanks to these advantages, the Stereo2 is an essential solution for industries looking to save time, cut costs and improve inspection accuracy.
Roview2: the pipe inspection robot
The Roview2 is a solution specially designed for inspections of partially submerged pipes and ducts. Unlike traditional cameras, this inspection robot is able to move directly on the surface of the water, providing detailed images without the need for prior drainage.
- Key features: HD camera and LED lighting for optimum visibility in dark environments.
- Autonomous movement on the water for inspection without human intervention.
- Robust design for harsh conditions (stagnant water, deposits, corrosion).
- Industrial applications: Monitoring sewage networks for leaks, blockages and damage.
- Inspection of industrial pipelines to ensure compliance and prevent incidents.
- Control of underground pipelines where human access is impossible.
With the Roview2companies can ensure rigorous control of their underground infrastructures without the need for heavy intervention.
