NIKON SHUTTLEPIX P 400R DIGITAL MICROSCOPE

Our digital microscope allows us to image work pieces at up to 20x zoom.

Specifications 
 

SYPRIS MODEL 6010 HALL EFFECT GAUSSMETER

Our gaussmeter is used to measure the magnetic magnetic forces between the pole tip and work piece. This allow us to directly control finishing forces and tailor our machines.

 

FLUKE 561 INFRARED AND CONTACT THERMOMETER

This infrared and contact thermometer is commonly used to measure temperature increases during polishing.

Specifications 
 

EXTECH INSTRUMENTS 461895 COMBINATION CONTACT/PHOTO TACHOMETER

MAF utilizes rotation to create relative motion between the work piece and magnetic particles. This tachometer allows us to predict to velocity of our particles by measuring the pole tip’s rotational speed.
