About RIEZLER Inspektionssysteme
RIEZLER Inspektionssysteme GmbH & Co. KG is a German manufacturer of camera systems for the professional inspection of pipe and sewer lines. Founded in 1992, the second-generation family business develops, produces and sells its complete product range at its Kempten location in the Allgäu – from push camera heads and steerable pipe crawlers to control units and reels, as well as cable drums, software and accessories. The systems are modular in design and combinable with each other; the product portfolio also includes the in-house developed inspection software RiVision, which generates WinCan-vX-compatible reports. With its systems, the company serves industries such as plumbing and installation, pipe rehabilitation, pipe cleaning, leak testing, municipal sector, industry, civil engineering, and well and borehole inspection. An in-house service workshop handles repairs and support. The manufacturing scope includes electronics and system assembly as well as stainless steel, aluminium and brass components; via distribution partners, the products are in use in Europe and worldwide.
