MD-Series

Multi-Directional Magnetic Wet Benches for AC, HWDC or 1-Phase FWDC Magnetization

The MD-Series multi-directional magnetic bench offers Alternating Current, Half Wave Direct Current and 1-phase Full Wave Direct Current for time-saving multidirectional magnetization which can find defects in all orientations with one mag-cycle.

The two outputs (contact and Flux Flow coil) each offer AC, HWDC or 1-Phase FWDC, and are independently adjustable to balance the magnet field intensity.

MD-Series magnetic benches are available in three models: MD-2030, MD-2060 and MD3-2060.
