DT-900 TechStrobe: Handheld Stroboscope with
Rechargeable Battery
The TechStrobe from Shimpo Instruments is the perfect tool for
slow motion or stop action stroboscopic inspection. The Shimpo
TechStrobe is the only palm size unit to include a phase shift feature. Phase shifting allows the TechStrobe operator to advance or
retard the flash timing by degrees of angle, without changing the
actual flash rate (FPM) of the TechStrobe. Employing its unique
phase shifting feature, the TechStrobe “freezes” rotating or reciprocating machinery for visual inspection of covered gear teeth,
shafts, oil/fuel/ink injector patterns, and print media; all without
stopping production. The TechStrobe is completely portable and
operates up to 2.5 hours at 1600 FPM from its detachable, rechargeable battery. The ergonomically designed battery serves
as the padded grip area. The battery is quickly detached and recharged while another battery is snapped into place. Designed
for right or left hand operation, all TechStrobe functions are intuitive and easy to use. Quality and maintenance professionals will
appreciate the rotary and push button controls for internal flash
(FPM/RPM) control, external triggering, tachometer mode and
phase shift control. The push buttons rapidly increase (x 2), or decrease (÷2) the flashes per minute (FPM) and change by degrees
the flash phase. Compact, impact resistant and rugged, with that
balanced feeling for one-handed operation, the TechStrobe will
quickly become one of the quality and maintenance professionals’ favorite tools.
