The automated XRF system for strip electroplating
The FISCHERSCOPEยฎ X-RAY 4000 is designed for measuring coating thicknesses during the strip electroplating process, for checking stamped parts and hot air solder-leveled strips or metal coatings on foils, for example. During the measurement, the galvanized strip is scanned using X-ray fluorescence analysis. The measurement results are both accurate and reliable. Fast mechanics for moving the measuring head around make it possible to take measurements at various places on the test piece. Due to the modular system architecture, the XRF measuring instrument can be adjusted according to your individual needs. If required, a second measuring head can even be installed for measuring the front and back of a product.
Inline measurements taken in real time and directly in the production line yield more readings โ and more quickly โ than your quality lab can provide. This makes it possible to identify trends in the coating thickness and quickly take corrective measures. As a result, the interventions required in the coating line are less severe. The advantage: You can control the process more accurately without having to set a safety margin on the coating thickness, which saves money.
