Simple Coating Thickness Measurement of CDP in Hard-to-Reach Spots in Car BodiesIn the automotive industry, the anti-rust warranty has become an important hallmark of car quality. Particularly in hard-to-reach areas…
To prevent solder from bridging conductive traces and causing short-circuits, while undergoing the soldering process printed circuit boards (PCBs) are coated with a non-conductive lacquer to which solder will not…
As electronic devices get smaller and smaller, conducting paths must be positioned even more closely together on printed circuit boards (PCBs). This is why, today, most PCBs are multi-layered. In…
Determining the Quality of Two-Component Conformal Coatings on PCB with Hardness Testing In the electronics industry, two-component conformal coatings are often used to minimize current leakage on PCBs and as…
Conformal coating material is applied to electronic circuitry to act as protection against moisture, dust, chemicals, and temperature extremes. Coatings on assemblies which are too thin or totally uncoated and therefore non-protected…
As the electronics industry makes use of ever thinner coatings, manufacturers increase their demands on measuring technologies to provide reliable parameters for product monitoring. One example is the Au/Pd/Ni/Cu/printed circuit…
Nails and other fasteners are coated to protect them against rust; the thickness of the zinc layer corresponds directly to how long they can resist corrosion. Extended warranties and constantly-changing…
Coating thickness measurement is of growing importance in the paint and corrosion protection industry, as is conformance to regulations and standards like SSPC-PA2, a specification that describes procedures to measure…
For automotive manufacturers, it is of increasing importance to control the quality of the paint processes in order to ensure effective corrosion protection while reducing costs. Especially in EDP (electrophoretic…
For a variety of reasons, assessing the quality of paint coatings on car bodies is increasing in importance. Narrow tolerance limits and strong demand for smooth finishes require precise measurements…
