Magnetic Shielding Quality Assurance and Testing
At Magnetic Shield Corporation, we test and evaluate all our magnetic shielding materials in our Quality Assurance Lab for shielding performance and magnetic capabilities. All materials must meet our quality standards before they are accepted or sent to our customers. Our commitment to provide the highest quality magnetic shielding material has given us a reputation as the worldwide leader in magnetic shielding manufacturing and materials supply. We are continuously improving our magnetic shielding quality assurance and testing capabilities and equipment to meet the requirements of our customers and new technologies. Our lab is equipped with various Helmholtz coils, magnetic fields sensors and electronic bench equipment, which we use to test magnetic shield materials and parts to individual customer requirements.
Most tests and measurements are completed inside our Magnetic Shield Room, MuROOM®, which allows for a low and homogeneous background field environment. We can test to international standards like ASTM A698 and military standards like DOD-STD-1399-070 Part 1.
We use a wide range of tools, equipment and software in our magnetic shielding quality assurance and testing processes to ensure that our products meet our own stringent standards as well as our customers’ specific requirements. Our equipment list includes:
