Olympus Hall Effect Thickness Gauge

Magna Mike 8600 is a portable thickness gauge that uses a simple magnetic method to reliably and repeatedly measure the thickness of non-ferrous materials. The operation of Magna Mike instrument is very simple. When measuring, hold or move the magnetic probe on one side of the material being measured, and place a small target steel ball (or target disk, target steel wire) on the other side of the material or in a container. The Hall effect sensor of the probe measures the distance from the probe end to the target steel ball. The measured distance is immediately displayed on the screen in numerical form as a thickness reading for easy recognition.

Two new types of probes with replaceable wear caps

Magna Mike offers two types of magnetic probes: flat and angled. Both types of probes are equipped with replaceable wear-resistant caps, which enhances the durability of the probes and reduces the cost of replacing them.

New features added:

Plastic and glass bottles and packaging

In the application of measuring the thickness of plastic containers, users only need to simply place small target steel balls into the container. The magnetic probe attached to the outside of the container will attract the target steel ball. When the probe moves on the outer surface of the container or at critical corners, the small steel ball will also move with the probe. In the minimum mode, the thickness gauge will continuously display the current thickness value and the minimum thickness value

Tear seams in cars

The Magna Mike 8600 is highly suitable for most automotive tear seam detection applications when used in conjunction with a standard probe, one disc of two target discs, and a replaceable pointed chisel anti-wear cap, as such measurements require small channels or grooves.

Built in alphanumeric data logger

Magna Mike is equipped with a file based extended alphanumeric data logger for convenient storage and transmission of thickness readings.

The data logger can store thickness readings in four standard file formats: incremental, sequential, sequential with custom points, and two-dimensional raster.

You can use WINXL to directly transfer data to an Excel spreadsheet in separate or file format

Send data to other SPC programs

USB and RS-232 outputs

Export files in. txt or CSV format to a pluggable MicroSD card

Create onboard report

Connect directly to an Excel spreadsheet

The Magna Mike 8600 comes with RS-232 and USB outputs, allowing the instrument to directly transfer data to an Excel spreadsheet. The built-in WINXL interface program can transmit thickness readings to the computer in the form of individual or file transmission.

Applications in aerospace and other fields

Magna Mike has been successfully applied in quality control programs in the aerospace industry, measuring various components of aerospace vehicles made of composite and non-ferrous materials.

The target steel wire can be inserted into the cooling holes of the turbine blades, while larger magnetic target steel balls can be used to measure jet engine components up to 25.4 millimeters thick.
