Description
Non-destructive measurement of crack depths in metals and alloys.
It is a high-precision, hand-held instrument explicitly designed for measuring the depth of cracks on various metals and alloys, including stainless steel and duralumin, which have been previously detected by other methods.
Advantages
- The crack depth meter operates on the principle of AC electro-potential measurement, providing prompt and precise depth testing compared to traditional methods. It works most efficiently in combination with other crack-revealing methods, such as magnetic particle, capillary, or eddy-current testing.
- Suitable for measurement on both ferromagnetic and non-ferromagnetic materials (e.g., stainless steel, aluminum alloys).
- Wide measuring range from 0.2 to 100.0 mm.
- Minimal influence of material electromagnetic properties on measurement results.
- Equipped with various probe designs for inspecting products of irregular shapes.
- Mobile spring-loaded contact electrodes on the probe enable measurements on curved surfaces
How does it works
- Setting of the “0” – measure on an undamaged area of the object.
- Measuring of crack depth – position the contact electrodes over the crack, and the depth measurement in mm will be displayed on the screen.
Applications
- Shafts, rolls, rolling mills, construction components, machines, and mechanisms
- Pipes, tubes, oil-and-gas pipelines
- Pressure vessels
- Energy industry devices
