Bath Analysis Coating Thickness XDL

Coating thickness gauge for electroplating and electroless coatings XDL is an X-ray fluorescence measuring instrument for manual or automated coating thickness measurements on protective and decorative coatings. These are extensively acknowledged as a universally applicable energy dispersive X-ray measuring instruments which are widely used for non-destructive thickness measurements and analysis of thin coatings, for measurements on mass-produced parts and printed circuit boards as well as for the solution analysis. These are engineered under the firm direction of experienced quality controllers and following international industrial standard. 

Models

  • XDL 210: Plane support stage, fixed Z-axis
  • XDL 220: Plane support stage, motor-driven Z-axis
  • XDL 230: Manually operable XY-stage, motor-driven Z-axis
  • XDL 240: Motor-driven XY-stage that moves into the loading position automatically, when the protective hood is opened. Motor-driven programmable Z-axis

Applications

  • Measurement of electroplated mass-produced parts
  • Inspection of thin coatings, e.g., decorative chromium-plating
  • Analysis of functional coatings in the electronics and semiconductor industries
  • Automated measurements, e.g., on printed circuit boards
  • Solution analysis in the electroplating
