Magnetic Analysis Corporation (MAC®), Elmsford, NY, USA, a pioneer in nondestructive testing solutions, helps wire mills tackle challenges through its Minimac® digital eddy current test equipment.

Magnetic Analysis Corp., Sensor Networks, Inc. and Zetec, three NDT leaders, have joined forces to offer the ZMS program, a single alternative for bar and tube producers needing to service and upgrade their phased array systems such as ROWA and BIS for detecting flaw/wall thickness/geometry and lamination.

A regional environmental analytical laboratory was bidding on a significant piece of new business. The laboratory already had three gas chromatograph systems; however, this job would require a fourth. The director had used the annual capital budget on equipment to upgrade the laboratory’s high-technology equipment to maintain a competitive edge in its markets.

Magnetic Analysis Corporation, most commonly referred to as MAC, is a major worldwide source of NDT equipment including eddy current, flux leakage, and ultrasonic inspection systems. Since its beginnings to present day, MAC has been the first to market with various types of groundbreaking NDT equipment.

Non-destructive testing or NDT has become the go-to quality assurance management tool for the examination of materials and components. Perhaps the best feature about this form of testing is that it allows materials to be examined without changing or destroying their usefulness.

This paper will discuss the selection of inspection methods for testing Super Duplex stainless product for the offshore energy exploration, petrochemical, food & beverage, and power generation industry. We will show how Eddy Current and Ultrasonics will meet requirements set up by ASTM, and EN standards in regards to Super Duplex stainless steel.

Rapid inspection of fasteners and metal parts for properties such as heat treatment, hardness, and alloy is a key requirement in meeting today’s stringent specifications in the automotive, aerospace, nuclear, and similar demanding industries.

Eddy current technology is the go-to wire and cable testing method for checking continuity, alloy, and other conditions as well as for locating welds and splices.

A new design has been developed for the ultrasonic testing (UT) of drawn over mandrel seamless carbon steel tube and pipe that enables manufacturers to test with fewer adjustments to accommodate varying diameters of material, without the need for time-consuming configuration changes.

Since being founded in 1928 in Long Island City, New York, Magnetic Analysis Corporation (MAC) has 85 years of experience in the nondestructive testing (NDT) industry. As one of the first companies in the world to develop a fully computerized rotary eddy current tester, MAC is truly a world-class NDT pioneer.

The Victaulic copper connection system complies with EN1057 half hard copper tubing sizes DN50 to DN150 (2 to 6") and can withstand pressures up to 2,450kPa/355psi depending on the type and size of the copper tubing.

As a start, suppliers should recognize that it is fast becoming mandatory for any long stock producer to pass 100 percent of the product through a test station to assure that customer expected quality levels are met.
