DC Magnetic Flux Leakage Testing
ROTOMAT / TRANSOMAT Product Family
-
Foerster Instruments, Incorporated
With the new generation ROTOMAT DA and TRANSOMAT DA flux leakage test systems FOERSTER is setting new standards in continuous quality assurance of ferromagnetic steel tubes. The test systems enable the reliable detection of natural and oblique defects, regardless of their angle or length, in addition to standardized longitudinal and transversal defects. The miniaturization of sensors together with highly integrated electronic components dramatically increases the number of channels. This makes a more precise and finer scan of the surface possible, giving a more complete set of information regarding detected defects. The newly introduced C-Scan visualizes these defects in high-definition and real-time, resulting in a completely new evaluation of the tubes to meet rising quality requirements.

Magnetic-Inductive Testing
MAGNATEST® Product Family
-
Foerster Instruments, Incorporated
The MAGNATEST product family is used for the non-destructive testing of metallic materials for magnetic and/or electrical properties. The test instruments are used in the automotive and aviation sectors as well as in the production of semi-finished products. The focus is on testing components relevant to safety such as brake discs, or ball pins and functional components such as camshafts and drive shafts, pivots and piston pins. Typical test tasks include hardness checks, material differentiation and sorting. MAGNATEST can also be used for the automatic testing for the geometric properties of all metallic series components. The high-performance amplifier installed in MAGNATEST test instruments makes it possible to analyze harmonics, which guarantees an extremely reliable and precise repetition, even when impacted by perturbations.

Eddy Current Test System
CIRCOGRAPH® Product Family
-
Foerster Instruments, Incorporated
The CIRCOGRAPH eddy current test system with rotating probes guarantees maximum detection sensitivity for exposed longitudinal surface defects on bright material. The test system is primarily used for wire drawing machines, Cu tube rewinders, and finishing sections in the bright steel sector. The individually tailored test systems by FOERSTER can be fitted with rotating sensors or CIRCOSCAN rotating discs. They scan flat and profiled material, e.g. when testing rails and billets.
