Get the Most Out of Your X-Ray Fluorescence (XRF) Coating Thickness Instrumentation

September 08, 2021 |

X-ray fluorescence is widely accepted in the electroplating industry as the go-to test method for measuring coating thickness.

The past decades of use have proven it to be the fast, accurate and dependable instrument choice the industry relies on. These powerful measurement systems can also become tools to increase productivity, control costs and increase profitability.

Join Rob Weber and Bill Brecher as they explore instrument features and functionality. Create routine measurement tasks; pre-programmed measurement sequences can be launched with just a click and are already available in the software. Discover plating solution analysis, X/Y stage programming, automated measurement processes, complete inspection plans, statistical process control and data export.

Agenda:

  • Pattern Recognition: Fine tune location for critical measurements, improve measurement efficiency and part throughput for repeating patterns
  • Tasking (measurement programming): Increase productivity and gain efficiency by easily creating scrips to automate routine tasks and procedures. Automate sequential measurement tasks with a single click of a mouse
  • Plating solutions analysis:  Fast and accurate measurement of electroplating solutions. Improve process control and quality assurance by easily measuring baths for metal content
  • Statistical Process Control: Use your XRF thickness measurements to monitor your process. Identify potential issues before they become a quality problem. Calculate Cp and Cpk. Save money by reducing scrap and reducing rework
  • Export Data: Electronically export and backup your measurement data for archiving or remote data processing. Meet customer requirement for historical documentation
