Test defect saw

Precision sawing of artificial test errors for calibration

Practical solution for including external defects. To ensure compliance with high quality requirements, international standards such as EN 10246 define artificial test defects. For this purpose, FOERSTER offers a precision test-defect saw that enables standardized and reproducible defect depths for artificial longitudinal and transverse flaws.

The fine increments of the twist-clamping sets allow optimal clamping of the test materials and precise zero-point adjustment (when the saw blade first touches the material). This ensures a cutting accuracy of 10 µm.
