Magnetic holder for Scan S25T

Sylvac is pleased to introduce a revolutionary new holding system for small, magnetizable parts: The Scan S25T optical machine magnetic holder. Composed of a SOUTH magnet and a NORTH magnetic plate, this system has been designed for the measurement of small magnetic parts that are usually difficult to hold in position without compromising the part or the measurement.

Advantages

  • Non-contact holding, without deformation of the part
  • Easy and quick positioning of the part with tweezers
  • Allows measurement of static and dynamic characteristics
  • Precise measurement and repeatability - even if the part is not exactly centered, thanks to software alignment correction


Principles

  • A magnetic field straightens and holds the part vertically
  • Clever system with different interchangeable tips, with or without positioning center (vee)
  • Holds small, magnetizable parts with a diameter between 0.4mm and 3mm and a length up to 50mm
  • Available as a set with different tips or as individual pieces


Industries
