SigmaCheck 2
The SigmaCheck 2
Eddy Current (ECT) Conductivity Meter is designed to provide the user with fast
and accurate conductivity measurements at a reasonable price; whilst being
extremely easy to use making it suitable for use by shop inspectors or
engineers.
Meeting the requirements for conductivity
measurements in the aircraft manufacture and maintenance, the SigmaCheck 2 is
put to work where conductivity measurements are used to verify proper
alloy/temper or detect heat damaged components.
The Sigmacheck 2 is extremely user friendly and can
just as easily be operated by a semi-skilled Operator as by Experts. It will be
equally at home in the Aerospace, Metals Processing, Casting, Maintenance and
Quality Assurance industries as well as appealing to Heat Treatment Specialists
and those determining the purity of materials such as gold bullion and coins
(counterfeit detection).
