News › INNOVENT – Inter­na­tio­nal stan­dard for magneto-opti­cal sen­sor technology

As part of the qMOIF rese­arch pro­ject, INNOVENT has deve­lo­ped an inter­na­tio­nal stan­dard for magneto-opti­cal sen­sor tech­no­logy in coope­ra­tion with the Phy­si­ka­lisch-Tech­ni­sche Bun­des­an­stalt (PTB), the Inter­na­tio­nal Stan­dards Con­sul­ting (ISC) and Tübi­tak. The IEC TS 62607–9‑2:2024 stan­dard, which was published in July 2024, is a tech­ni­cal spe­ci­fi­ca­tion for test­ing magne­tic mate­ri­als using magneto-opti­cal sen­sors. Magneto-opti­cal sen­sors are of indus­trial rele­vance, for exam­ple, with regard to the qua­lity con­trol of magne­tic enco­ders for posi­tion mea­su­ring sys­tems and grain-ori­en­ted elec­tri­cal sheets for trans­for­mers. The inter­na­tio­nal stan­dar­diza­tion of the magneto-opti­cal test pro­ce­dure now gua­ran­tees high tech­ni­cal qua­lity through a uni­fied and regu­la­ted stan­dard.   The tech­ni­cal stan­dard is available here: https://webstore.iec.ch/en/publication/67459  Fur­ther infor­ma­tion on the qMOIF pro­ject can be found on the offi­cial PTB web­site at https://www.ptb.de/empir2021/qmoif/project/overview/
