We are looking to get a Magnaflux machine here at work. New units are quite expensive but have about 5000 amps (AC). I've found a decent looking used/refurbished machine with a lot more attractive price but it only has 1500 amps AC power.
Anyone familiar with these enough to be able to give advice on how big of a part could be readily checked with 1500 amps?
We are looking to mainly check shafts about 1.25 in Dia. x 22" ling with a set of gears on one end of the shaft.
By way of comparison, what would it take to do an automotive(v-8) crank?
Thanks.
