1. Usage difference: Medical endoscope is mainly used for routine medical examination and surgery. It can directly observe the changes of related parts through natural holes in human body or introduce a small incision in organs, and perform closed surgery in vitro together with other surgical instruments.
Industrial endoscopes are mainly used for inspection and observation of high temperature, toxicity, nuclear radiation and places that cannot be directly observed by human eyes, mainly used in automobiles, aero-engines, pipelines, mechanical parts and so on.
It can realize nondestructive testing without disassembling or destroying components and stopping equipment operation, and is widely used in various departments of modern core industries such as aviation, automobile, ship, electric power, chemistry, electric power, gas, atomic energy, civil construction and so on.
2. Differences in design and materials: Medical endoscopes need to consider ergonomics, and the design is more humanized. Soft materials are usually selected to reduce the harm to human body. However, the industrial endoscope needs to withstand harsh environmental conditions, so its design is more robust and the material selection pays more attention to durability.
The difference of manufacturing process: The manufacturing process of medical endoscope needs to strictly abide by the relevant medical safety and quality standards, while the manufacturing process of industrial endoscope pays more attention to the performance and cost performance of the product.
