The field of application is diversified and varies from stainless steel with excellent surface for medical use to wires for the chemical and electrical industry. Test coils from 0.5 to 4.5 mm are available for detection of smallest surface flaws using the eddy-current method. The sensor system DEFECTOMINI permits testing of all conductive metals including ferritic material by using permanent magnets. The compact design of the sensor system DEFECTOMINI allows perfectly the integration to wire drawing machines. The test coil guides itself on the wire and is therefore able to balance variation in the direction.
