New tester to be featured at FABTECH

polar and linear mode show real- time, true wave form signals for easy review on an on-site monitor or remote locations. Minimac 55 can detect short surface and some subsurface defects including laps, slivers and cracks in tube, bar, wire and parts, and weld line faults, including short ID or OD defects. Using the MID model, magnetic inclusions such as iron filings in copper material can also be detected. When networked, Minimac 55 can share the same library with multiple instruments on other lines, to ensure correct settings. Setup, monitoring and reports with customer, product information, defect location, time, amplitude and phase can be stored locally or on the network for quality assurance. MAC’s range of encircling and sector test coils is available for use with the

EDDY current and ultrasonic test systems, including the new Minimac ® eddy current tester and Echomac ® ultrasonic test system, will be shown by Magnetic Analysis Corporation (MAC) at Booth N-1005 at the FABTECH Show in Chicago, USA, in November. The new Minimac 55 brings high- performance eddy current testing to a broad range of production applications. The CE-compatible, single-channel instrument is the first eddy current tester to offer the robust capabilities of Magnetic Analysis Corp’s top-of-the-line Multimac in a powerful, compact design. Well-suited for continuous production line testing where ease of setup without the need for constant operator adjustment is needed, the single-channel Minimac 55 has software controls for all functions, including phasing, filtering and sensitivity, all while operating at speeds over 4,000 fpm. Test results in full-colour
