Rollscan 350 saves on material and labor expenses Rollscan 350 is a digital Barkhausen noise analyzer. It is designed for surface quality control and testing of near-surface defects such as grinding burns, heat treatment defects, as well as changes in stress and microstructure in a wide variety of ferritic steel and other ferromagnetic materials. Inspection with Rollscan is fast and can easily match the production rates of most manufacturing lines, enabling process control in real-time. As a result, significant quality improvements and savings on material and labor expenses have been realized by companies using the Rollscan system. A large selection of sensor types makes Rollscan systems flexible. Piston pins, gears, bearing rings and rollers, camshafts and crankshafts, and landing gears are just some of the parts that can be successfully tested with Rollscan 350.

Residual stress and retained austenite measurements with Xstress Xstress Robot system consists of a robot goniometer with G3 tube holder attached conveniently to an easily movable carrier, X3003 main unit and XTronic software. Robot goniometer now handles the tasks previously made possible by an X-Y system and Floor stand. Xstress Robot includes everything needed for making residual stress or retained austenite measurements by X-ray diffraction. It is especially useful for making measurements on large and complicated parts or surfaces that cannot be moved easily otherwise. Instead of moving the location to be measured, the Xstress Robot system moves onto the measurement location with minimum efforts. Mapping within the robot’s reach is handled with the XTronic software, and when a measurement needs to be made further away, the whole Xstress Robot system can be moved to the new position.

The CMM that brought active scanning to small and midsize manufacturers offer greater flexibility and accuracy. The robust machine design of CONTURA G2 ensures reproducibly precise measuring results and allows for the option of passive or active technology.
