Foerster TEST DEFECT SAW S20 – saw for reference notches
Applications
For producing the reference notches needed to calibrate and verify NDT systems – the EN ISO 10893 series of standards sets the requirements for their geometry. The TEST DEFECT SAW S20 cuts longitudinal and transverse notches into metal wire, tubes and bars Ø 1–20 mm. The Twist clamping system allows notches in both directions without re-clamping the part, and two LED indicators show the contact of the saw blade with the material for precise zero-point setting. It weighs only 3.7 kg and is supplied in a transport case.
Key features
- Notch depth accuracy 10 µm
- Saw blade thickness 0.08–0.3 mm, notch length up to 25 mm
- Longitudinal and transverse notches in one clamping
- Twist clamping sets adapted to the diameter
- LED zero-point indication
- HSS and carbide saw blades
