Maurer Magnetics A-Test-LT

Maurer Magnetics A-Test-LT

Highly sensitive magnetic field sensor for low magnetic fields.

Overview

The Maurer Magnetics A-Test-LT is a highly sensitive magnetic field sensor for low magnetic fields. It detects and tracks magnetic sources in parts manufacturing, metrology or quality and safety. 

Applications

 

Production Technology

  • Detection and tracking of magnetism in the production process
  • Detection of magnetized parts at a distance
  • Monitoring of magnetization processes for duration, intensity and outcome

Automation and Metrology

  • Measurement of magnetic noise and stray flux
  • Identifying sources of interference in the low frequency range
  • Monitoring of demagnetization processes
  • Monitoring of mechanical positions and movements

Quality and Safety

  • Contactless detection of parts interspersed with residual magnetism
  • Independent monitoring of magnetic sources
  • Passive, non-detectable registration of vehicles and ferromagnetic materials
