Testing Semi-Finished Products with DEFECTOMAT® Quality Control and Process Monitoring FOERSTER’s DEFECTOMAT instruments are developed specifically for quality control and process monitoring throughout the entire manufacturing line for long products. Regardless whether testing is performed at very high temperatures or after bright finishing, the surfaces of semifinished products such as tubes, bars and wires of austenitic, non-ferromagnetic or ferromagnetic metals can be tested for defects. The resulting data are important indicators for continuous process optimization. Reliable and...

State-of-the-Art, Multi-Channel Eddy Current Testing With its DEFECTOMAT DA, FOERSTER sets new standards in non-destructive eddy current testing of tong products such as tubes, bars and wires. DEFECTOMAT DA offers unsurpassed reproducibility at high test speeds by combining advanced digital electronics with sophisticated system architecture. Its modular system setup and the resultant expansion possibilities guarantee maximum versatility for fulfilling ever-changing test requirements. Equipped with the latest technology and intelligent details, the DEFECTOMAT DA can also be integrated into...

Fully Digital Test System Optional interface Remote access for service and technical support I/O: ■ Line clock ■ Control signal ■ PLC Connections for up to 16 test stations in the same line Digitalization for Improved Test Quality The sensors of the DEFECTOMAT DA system are directly connected to the TEST SYSTEM DA, which first digitalizes the analog signal and then transmits it via Ethernet to the LINE SYSTEM DA. Hence, all data required for the evaluation of test results are available immediately. The close proximity of the TEST SYSTEM DA to the sensor (= short analog cables) minimizes the...

DEFECTOMAT® CI/DI Dual-Channel Eddy Current Testing Equipped with up to two fully operational test channels each, the compact DEFECTOMAT CI and DEFECTOMAT DI are perfectly suited for eddy current testing of long products directly in the production line. Because their wide range of functions makes it possible to integrate them into virtually any production environment, they are excellent introductory-level systems for structured quality assurance. Advantages of DEFECTOMAT® DI and CI ■ Optional dual-channel evaluation of Diff/Abs, Diff/Diff, Diff/Ferromat ■ 12 test frequencies ranging from...

DEFECTOMAT® CI/DI Optional interface Remote access for service and technical support I/O: ■ Line clock ■ Control signal ■ PLC More Convenience with DEFECTOMAT® CI The modern IT architecture of the DEFECTOMAT CI allows it to be controlled directly at the device. All relevant parameters can easily be set by built-in function keys and a simple “turn-and-push” knob. Keyboard, mouse and display can also be plugged into the instrument. Furthermore, a primary process computer for data exchange can be connected via Ethernet. Clear Presentation of the Production Process All production information is...

Modular Entry-Level Instrument for Cost-Effective Quality Assurance Although the modular DEFECTOMAT ECM is small in size, it boasts many possibilities for integration into common production lines. Designed for easy handling, this compact instrument sorts the test material into good/defective categories. Typical applications include effortless, integrated solutions for tube welding lines and fine wire testing. Moreover, the DEFECTOMAT ECM can be used for the detection of cross-welding seams between strips, for tube joint detection and for mandrel breakage control. Advantages of DEFECTOMAT®...
