MSAT

Fast and precise quantification of retained austenite and magnetic content.

MSAT – Retained Austenite & Magnetic Moment Tester

The HyMAC system characterizes the magnetic properties of soft magnetic materials with high repeatability and accuracy.

With HyMAC, engineers and manufacturers can:

  • Measurecore losses, permeability, hysteresis loops, and eddy-current effects under varying frequencies.
  • Test samplesusing strip testers, toroidal field coil testers, and multi-geometry fixtures designed for different material forms.
  • Performincoming inspections, quality control evaluations, and advanced R&D tests for motors, transformers, and e-mobility applications.
