With internationally accepted testing criteria for wire rope safe bearing capacity as evaluation standard, TCK weak magnetism inspection system quantitatively measures the percentage loss of effective metallic bearing cross-sectional area, caused by internal and/or external breakages, abrasion, corrosion, fatigue and other flaws, predicts and monitors the development trends of the flaws and thereby evaluate the residual bearing capacity and service life of the rope. It provides scientific reference for maintaining and replacing wire ropes, and makes it possible to reduce the cost and enhance the efficiency of wire rope use.

TCK Weak Magnetism inspection products have the following technical advantages: ➀ Quantitative Inspection and High Differentiation: capable to inspect quantitatively both external and internal flaws such as breakage, abrasion, corrosion and fatigue with confidence level over 90%. ➁ High Sensitivity: 5V/G, 70,000 to 250,000 times more sensitive than Hall sensors; ➂ Real-time Inspection and High Pass-through Capacity: capable to perform online non-contacting inspection of ropes in use. ➃ Small size and Light weight: the sensor head less than 2 KG. ➄ Self-calibration and Strong Anti-interference Ability: with computerized self-calibration, ˇ°signal fidelity moduleˇ±, and ˇ°anti-interference moduleˇ± which ensure the accuracy and stability of inspection results.

The following TCK ˇ°Weak Magnetismˇ± NDT products are available: Portable Wire Rope Tester, Portable Elevator Wire Rope Tester, Permanently Mounted Online Automatic Inspection System for Wire Ropes, and Permanently Mounted Online Automatic Inspection System for Conveyor Belts. They are now used by over 1,500 customers world-wide, from mining, ports, steel, petroleum, cableway, elevator and other Industries. Global companies such as Foerster, Nippon Otis, Mitsubishi, and POSCO have signed with TCK purchase and cooperation contracts. Foerster Japan is the exclusive distributor of TCK rope testers in Japan and the value of this contract is USD$7 million.

According to customer feedbacks, the application of TCK products could produce high social and economic benefits. It not only changes wire rope management from disorder to order, avoiding the happening of serious accidents, but also eliminates equipment idling with manual inspection, and reduces the cost of wire rope use scientifically. Therefore, TCK is not just safety, but also efficiency.
