Eddy Current
FOERSTER Eddy Current test instruments and systems.
FOERSTER is a leading German manufacturer of Eddy Current testing equipment and systems for non-destructive materials testing (NDT). Since 1948, the name FOERSTER has been synonymous with the highest quality and precision.
As a technology leader and "hidden champion", FOERSTER continuously works on offering its customers individual solutions with new innovations and further product developments. Together with its customers, FOERSTER shapes the future in non-destructive testing.

TCM 2.142
Mobile universal device for non-destructive eddy current testing




TCM 2.142 – One platform for all your eddy current testing tasks
Designed for multipurpose use
Mobile testing often requires a variety of testing systems. FOERSTER’s versatile new TCM serves as a unifying platform for established eddy current testing products.
Deep-penetrating low frequency (LF) testing with DEFECTOSCOP for measuring residual wall thickness and high frequency (HF) testing with DEFECTOMETER for detection of the smallest cracks are now integrated in a single device. The TCM platform also covers conductivity measurement of non-ferromagnetic materials.
The intuitive touch interface allows the user to select the individual tasks via corresponding apps. Automatic probe recognition helps you set the optimal test and measurement parameters to achieve the best possible results.
