The new Zet@ Premium, an eddy current
instrument from CMS, offers an impressive
set of technical features for tube and bar
testing. Equipped with various probes, the
Zet@ Premium detects any type of opening
defect located on metallic products.
A small and compact instrument, Zet@
Premium offers a simple and intuitive
Windows based interface, available in
many different languages such as English,
French, Chinese, Russian, Turkish,
Portuguese and Italian. It has a wide and
bright colour screen and the panel keyboard
and mouse allows use in demanding
environments.
The remote control feature makes Zet@
Premium particularly easy to interface with
the factory supervision system and provides
user support directly from CMS technical
engineers. The accuracy of its electronics
used with relevant probes, chosen from
the wide range available from CMS, make
virtually all testing tasks possible.
Applications that have experienced
successful testing include fine wire testing
(with detection of 10 microns cracks), and
hot rolling mill production with speeds of up
to 110m/s.
These instruments are sold and supported
worldwide through a network of qualified
CMS partners. The company can offer
customised testing systems according to
user specifications.
