Mills
MAC® offers advanced NDT solutions for inspecting critical materials, ensuring the quality and integrity of products like bars, rods, and wire.
In mill applications, maintaining the integrity of critical components is essential, as defects can lead to costly repairs and safety risks. MAC® provides cutting-edge eddy current, flux leakage, and ultrasonic systems to inspect products like bars, rods, and wire used in manufacturing. With MAC's advanced testing solutions even the smallest flaws in wire and bar stock can be identified before they impact production. Our systems offer high throughput and precision, making MAC the ideal solution for mill applications where quality and efficiency are paramount.
Automated Test System for Cold Finishing Specialty Steel Mill
Increasing demands for high-quality steel rod and bar requires effective nondestructive (NDT) testing to ensure producers can meet their customer’s needs. As specifications become ever more stringent, NDT technology is consistently evolving new capabilities, adapting to new conditions and improving integration with mill operations.
Testing Wire & Rod
Eddy current technology is the go-to wire and cable testing method for checking continuity, alloy, and other conditions as well as for locating welds and splices.

Magnetic Analysis Corp (MAC), founded in 1928, offers a full range of eddy current test instruments and systems for detecting surface and sub-surface defects, including laps, slivers, and cracks in non-ferrous and ferrous wire and bar.
What Can Eddy Current Testing Do for Me Authored by Dean Isbell, ASNT Level III ET & UT
Since the development of eddy current testing in the early to mid-1900s this method has been used to detect defects and properties of many types of metals. The most common applications are testing tubular products for transverse defects, testing bar or wire products for longitudinal surface defects, and testing parts for defects and properties such as hardness.

Using NDT to Ensure Product Quality Authored by Joseph Baldauff, ASNT Level III ET and UT
Industrial heat exchanger users, aerospace, medical, and some military applications require the highest quality materials and also demand high inspection levels for long intermediate products (wire, tube, and bars). Surprisingly, automotive materials can also require the highest quality because defects in safety-critical components or parts integral to engine lifetime or fuel systems can lead to huge expenses.
Vendors that Become Partners: Collaborate on Effective NDT to Ensure High-Quality Products
One small handful of rejected materials, identified during a run of 30,000 high-precision components, is one handful too many,” asserts John Pechan, Chief Operating Officer at Round Ground Metals® (RGM®).
