TCM Product Family

Quick to set up. Easy to use. Precise results. The TCM is a modular eddy current testing device that combines multiple inspection and measurement applications in a single rugged system. Instead of using dedicated instruments for individual tasks, users simply select the required app directly on the TCM and adapt the device to their application. Individual app modules are available separately or in combination and can be expanded at any time with additional software modules and free software updates, ensuring the system grows with your inspection requirements.

The DEFECTOSCOP App enables universal eddy current testing with rotating, high-frequency and low-frequency probes for crack detection and residual wall thickness measurement. The SIGMATEST App provides precise electrical conductivity measurement of non-ferromagnetic metals, backed by FOERSTER's decades of expertise in conductivity testing. The ECA App delivers high-resolution eddy current array inspection with up to 512 channels for efficient large-area testing, while the ECMEASURE App enables trainable, application-specific measurements based on reference samples, such as coating thickness, ferrite content or residual wall thickness.

Thanks to its modular software architecture, the TCM supports a wide range of inspection and measurement tasks across numerous industries – from conductivity measurement on aircraft structures and material verification to crack detection on rails, bridges and safety-critical components, as well as high-resolution surface inspection.

All applications run on the same TCM hardware and share a consistent user interface and data concept, ensuring a short learning curve and intuitive operation across all applications. Built on Windows 10 LTSC, the TCM integrates seamlessly into existing IT environments while providing the flexibility of a familiar Windows ecosystem. External displays, docking stations, remote support solutions and Windows-based workflows simplify inspections, collaboration and data review, making the TCM much more than a conventional testing device.

Free software updates continuously enhance the TCM with new features, application improvements and extended capabilities, ensuring every user benefits from ongoing developments without additional software costs. Combined with FOERSTER's proven eddy current expertise and global service network, the TCM is a future-proof investment for flexible mobile testing.
