Shaved and Eddy Current tested

Suzuki Garphyttan uses the most advanced Eddy Current testing equipment available on the market.
Experience from many years of surface testing in efficient continuous testing lines is a guarantee for high
quality spring wire.

Eddy Current testing is carried out on material with high demands on surface quality.
EC-testing is performed with both rotating (R) and stationary (D) probe test equipment.
