Salient Technical Feature including Competing Feature |
Presence of transverse cracks in wires leads to premature failure. This system works based on the principle of encircling coil differential probe eddy current. This should be installed in the drawing line and wire passes through the core of the probe. Probe diameter can be changed based on the wire diameter. Features of the present system are as follows: Test material diameter: 1.5 mm - 2.5 mm Operating frequency: 10 Khz Depth Resolution: 200 pm Drawing line speed: up to 12 m/s LCD display Software for data logging to identify defect location Interfacing through LAN. Analog output for further signal analysis Alarm: LED & Buzzer Standalone as well as laptop based. Power Requirement: 220V/50Hz Weight: 1.5 Kg; Dimension: 300 x 300 x 100 (all in mm) |
