The Magnaflux Magnetic Pie Field Indicator, also known as a pie gauge, is a device used as an aid in determining the direction of magnetic field for detection of discontinuities in ferrous materials. The Pie Gauge is a great tool for quickly verifying the direction of magnetic flux on a surface.
Magnetic Field Direction Indicator - Made from eight ferrous segments, braised into a single piece, providing a star pattern of nonferrous discontinuities
Key Features
- Eight-Segment Design: Made from eight ferrous segments braised into a single piece for comprehensive flux direction detection
- Star Pattern Generation: Creates a star pattern of nonferrous discontinuities to clearly show magnetic field direction
- Versatile Positioning: Can be held at any angle and will generate indications perpendicular to the direction of magnetic flux
- Dry Powder Compatible: Typically used with dry powders for yoke inspection applications
- Quick Verification: Provides rapid assessment of magnetic flux direction on surfaces
Applications
- Determining magnetic field direction in ferrous materials
- Detection of discontinuities during magnetic particle testing
- Yoke inspection with dry powder applications
- Quality control verification of magnetic flux patterns
- Training and demonstration of magnetic field principles
