Magnetic Particle Crack Detection: Advanced Solutions for Quality Assurance
Magnetic particle crack detection (MT) is a highly effective non-destructive testing method used to identify surface cracks in ferromagnetic materials such as iron, cast iron, and steel. This technique allows for the visualization of arbitrarily oriented surface defects, ensuring that even the most challenging components can be thoroughly inspected.
Stationary Testing Machines: DEUTROFLUX UWS
The Magnetic Particle Crack Detecting Machine DEUTROFLUX UWS is designed for testing long components with high sensitivity across the entire surface. This machine employs a mobile, motor-driven coil, making it particularly versatile for various applications.
Key Features:
- Rotating Magnetic Field: The system utilizes two phase-shifted alternating currents to generate a rotating magnetic field, enabling the detection of cracks in any direction in a single operation.
- Uniform Magnetization: The alternating current skin effect facilitates uniform magnetization and efficient demagnetization, even for complex workpieces.
- Automated Processes: Automatic test cycles reduce operational errors, handling tasks such as clamping, rinsing, magnetizing, and demagnetizing.
- Durability: Built with sturdy aluminum profiles, the machine allows for subsequent attachments like tubs and holders, ensuring longevity and adaptability.
