Handheld Pcb Coating Thickness Measurement Device

Product Description

Handheld Pcb Coating Thickness Measurement Device 

PMP10  is a Hand-held instrument for measuring coating thickness on PC Boards and electroplated surfaces

The hand-held PHASCOPE PMP10 is ideally suited for quality control in the electroplating and printed circuit board (PCB) industries. Because the instrument employs the phase-sensitive eddy current method (ISO 21 968), it allows the measurement of metal coatings on any substrate. A specially designed probe even enables measurements in PCB through holes.

Applications

The phase-sensitive eddy current method offers great advantages in measuring small objects such as screws, nuts and bolts, since the geometry of the part being measured exerts very little influence on the measurement itself: Even rough surfaces can be measured precisely with the PHASCOPE PMP10. This method also enables non-contact measuring; for example, the thickness of copper plating on a circuit board can be measured irrespective of protective lacquer coatings. Using specialised probes optimised for specific measurement tasks, the PHASCOPE PMP10 is particularly suitable for the following:

Measuring coating thickness of nickel on steel

• Measuring zinc or copper on steel despite rough surfaces and complex surface geometries
• Measuring the thickness of non-ferrous metals on non-ferrous metals, given sufficient difference in conductivity, e.g. copper on brass or bronze
• Measuring the thickness of non-ferrous metals on insulating substrates, such as copper layers on circuit boards.

• Extensive evaluation and statistics functions
• Outlier control and tolerance monitoring options
• Various languages to choose from
• Battery and/or continuous operation via plug-in charger (included)
• Storage of up to 20,000        readings
• Data transfer via RS232 interface
