Permanent
Magnet Yokes
|
Western
Instruments offers 3 models in the WM-Series of Permanent Magnet Yokes. These
|
models
consist of both Hinged Frame and Cable Type configurations, sot the inspector’s
|
preference is
assured. Permanent Magnet Yokes are a great convenience in Magnetic
|
Particle
Inspection, due to their complete portability, as no electricity is required.
All
|
WM-Series
Yokes utilize Rare Earth Magnet Cartridges specifically manufactured to our
|
high performance
needs. WM-Series Yokes lift over 60 Pounds, and with recharging not
|
being necessary,
the minimum lift of 50 pounds (23 Kg) is assured for years.
|
|
The
WM-5 and WM-5LT are Hinged Frame units, equipped with Rotating Contact Feet,
|
which
easily permits the inspector to maximize the contact area between the Dual
Contact
|
Surfaces
on the pole pieces and the workpiece. Both of these units have field
replaceable
|
magnet cartridges,
in the unlikely event of a failure. The WM-5 is considered a Standard
|
Permanent
Magnet Yoke, while the WM-5LT is a lighter weight alternative.
|
|
The
WM-5C is our Cable Type Permanent Magnet Yoke. The Coated Cable allows a
|
great
deal of flexibility to easily permit maximum contact area between the
Non-Ferrous
|
contact surface and
the workpiece. The Hand Grip is Ergonomically designed for operator
|
comfort, with provisions
for easy removal off the workpiece.
|
|
All
WM-Series Yokes are delivered with a Calibration Certificate and Operators
Manual.
