FAST & EASY CHARACTERIZATION

  • automatic measurement of 1st and 2nd quadrant, complete hysteresis loop, recoil line
  • remanence Br, coercivity HcB, HcJ, max energy product BHmax, Hknee,  µ recoil, etc.
  • temperature measurements up to 220 °C
  • easy-to-use software and hardware
  • wide range of accessories for any sample shape or size

Helmholtz coils for permanent magnets quality control
(single-axis/3-axis)

Helmholtz coils provide an easy and non-destructive way to control the quality of permanent magnets. The Helmholtz coils can be single-axis or 3-axis. The triple-axis version lets you see the direction of the magnetization with respect to the axes, regardless of how you place the magnet. The complete system to perform this measure consists of a 3-Axis Helmholtz coil and a cabinet containing three fluxmeters and a PC Verification of the anisotropy

Custom Measuring Coils

Designed to exact measurements for maximum accuracy

Each custom measuring coil is designed to perfectly match the exact dimensions of the fixture it will be connected to. It’s only the way to insure the most accurate measurement possible. Stators and rotors containing permanent magnets can be fitted with these custom inductive coil fixtures, but a custom design is necessary. All custom coils are tailored for specific applications.

How it works

The magnetic flux produced by a single pole or by the total number of poles on a stator or rotor assembly is inducted to a custom coil, which is wound on a perfectly matched fixture.

Fluxmeter

Cost-efficient, ready to use out of the box.

Digital fluxmeter utilizes sense coil technology to measure average flux density and total flux. Our precision fluxmeters arrive ready for typical use and do not need any initial adjustments or settings. There are additional options, which you can set to further customize your measurement process — pairing with Helmholtz coils being one of the most widely used solutions.

Precision measurement of feebly magnetic materials

  • Austenitic stainless steel
  • Non-magnetic brass

The Permeameter for feebly magnetic materials (model PFMM) verifies that a non-magnetic material, such as austenitic stainless steel, is actually non-magnetic. The permeameter quantifies the magnetic weakness of the material by measuring its magnetization curve, relative permeability and susceptibility.

When a non-magnetic material is used in an application where interaction with magnetic fields must be very low, the control of its magnetization and permeability is fundamental.

  • Heavy duty cabinet containing the DC power supply and fluxmeter
  • Solenoid with positioning tool for samples
  • Compensated measuring coil
  • PC with dedicated software + printer
  • Unrivaled ease of use, our proprietary software provides seamless management of the measuring system.

Measurements are taken in compliance with  ASTM 342 and IEC 60404-15 standards.
