3D rotator
OPTIONAL ACCESSORY FOR KLY5-A AND MFK1-FA/A KAPPABRIDGES
- REDUCES AMS MEASUREMENT TIME
- EASY OPERATION
- AUTOMATIC FIELD VARIATIONS OF AMS
General description
3D-Rotator brings increased speed and better comfort of anisotropy of magnetic susceptibility
measurements. The 3D-Rotator rotates the specimen simultaneously
about two axes with different velocities. The 2-axis rotation enables to de
termine 320 directional susceptibilities during a single anisotropy measurement.
These directions are very well distributed on a sphere which makes the measuring design
almost rotatable.
The actual measurement is fully automated in such a way that,
once the specimen is mounted into the rotator, it requires no additional manipulation to measure the full AMS tensor. The approximate duration of one anisotropy measurement including bulk susceptibility is 1.5 min, compared to more than
3 minutes when the classical (3-plane) rotator is used.
