Structure Testing of Aluminium Components with Eddy Current
Missing heat treatment can lead to stress cracks and component failure. Eddy current testing reliably identifies non-heat-treated aluminium parts inline.
Automated Crack and Structure Testing of Valves
Cracks or incorrect heat treatment can cause engine valve failure. Eddy current testing reliably detects defects and verifies material properties.
Non-Destructive Crack and Structure Testing of Cams and Camshafts
Cracks or structural deviations in cams and camshafts can cause severe engine damage. Eddy current testing reliably detects defects and material variations.
Monitoring the Autofrettage Process of Injection Systems
Incorrect autofrettage can weaken high-pressure tubes. Eddy current testing reliably verifies material properties and process quality automatically.
Structure Testing of Cast Components
Microstructure or material deviations in cast components can affect safety and performance. Magneto-inductive testing reliably identifies variations.
Portable hardness testing on large forged parts with SONODUR 3
Large forged parts are often difficult to test with stationary systems. SONODUR 3 enables fast, non-destructive portable hardness testing on site.
Hardness Testing of CV-Joints and Tulips
Insufficient hardness in CV joints can cause drivetrain failure. Magneto-inductive testing with MAGNATEST D reliably verifies structure and hardness.
Applying UCI on nitrided surfaces in the heat treatment industry using SONODUR
Testing nitrided compound layers destructively disrupts production. SONODUR 3 enables direct, non-destructive UCI hardness testing on-site.
Hardness measurement on heat affected zones (HAZ) with SONODUR
Excessive hardness in the HAZ of welds risks cracking and failure. SONODUR 3 delivers precise, non-destructive UCI hardness testing on-site.
Bottom bracket shaft test for e-bike torque sensors
Defective bottom bracket shafts can impair the measurement accuracy of e-bike torque sensors. Magneto-inductive structure and crack testing with MAGNATEST D reliably inspects the shafts.
Hardness measurement on sheet metal with SONODUR
Thin sheets vibrate during testing, risking deformation or damage. SONODUR 3 enables non-destructive UCI hardness testing with tailored probes.
UCI Hardness Testing of Weld Seams on Pipes and Boilers
Hardness peaks in weld HAZ raise crack risk in pipes and boilers. SONODUR 3 delivers precise UCI hardness testing directly on-site.
