Magnetic Analysis Corporation Offers Varimac V Eddy Current Comparator
Magnetic Analysis Corporation provides fast, accurate, non-destructive testing with the Varimac V eddy current comparator.
Mount Vernon, NY, March 09, 2007 --(PR.com)-- The Varimac V, the latest in Magnetic Analysis Corporation’s (MAC) line of eddy current comparators, provides fast and accurate testing of metal parts, bar, wire and tubing for variations in physical characteristics such as alloy, hardness, case depth, and heat treatment.
The system’s simple setup requires only its electronics, a test coil, a balance coil, a sample of the part or product to be tested, and a monitor. After setup, the Varimac 5 runs automatically. Testing can be observed conveniently on a remote monitor in another location without going out to the plant floor.
Features of the system include high sensitivity and resolution, as well as selective circuits to optimize differentiation between signals for wanted and unwanted conditions. A new, broader frequency range (100 Hz to 2MHz) enhances selectivity, while a 20 GB hard drive can handle all the data storage needed for setups and reporting. Further, thresholds can be conveniently set while viewing the results on a monitor. This allows customers to choose the most effective threshold based on amplitude, phase, or a combination of both to detect the exact condition they need to find.
The Varimac V can be used with MAC’s Parts Gate systems to sort parts at speeds up to six parts per second into “acceptable,” “below specification,” and “above specification” tracks.
This is especially useful for testing parts such as fasteners, bearings, and other cold-formed pieces. Alternatively, the outputs can be used for markers and other operations. The Varimac can also be operated in conjunction with other parts handling systems. The system’s high-speed, continuous operation and reliability in production environments make 100 percent inspection of parts economically feasible. In addition to parts testing, the Varimac 5 is also frequently used on line to verify alloy, grade and hardness in bar, wire and tubing, and to identify accidentally mixed grades.
Based in Mount Vernon, New York, Magnetic Analysis Corporation celebrates its 75th year in business in 2003. Today, MAC is a global provider of nondestructive testing equipment for metal products, including eddy current, ultrasonic, and flux leakage instruments and systems. Beyond remaining at the forefront of these technologies, MAC provides world-class customer service, including convenient operating leases, and working with customers to provide the best solution for each application as well as training and service.
