CMI233
The CMI233 package enables control of plating and paint & powder coating processes using advanced magnetic induction and eddy-current technology. It provides non-destructive coating thickness measurement for non-magnetic coatings over magnetic (ferrous) substrates and non-conductive coatings over conductive substrates (primarily Al, Cu as close to 100% IACS conductivity is required). The system was specially designed to handle the needs of platers, coaters, and quality professionals.
Three versions of the CMI233 are available:
- CMI233E: Instrument, ECP eddy current probe, protective case and set of NIST traceable calibration shims
- CMI233M: Instrument, SMP-2 magnetic induction probe, protective case and set of NIST traceable calibration shims
- CMI233Dual: Instrument, ECP eddy current and SMP-2 magnetic induction probes, protective case and set of calibration shims
- Measure non-conductive coatings over nonmagnetic conductive substrates, and conductive coatings on nonconductive substrates (Eddy Current Probes)
- Non-conductors on conductors, Paint & Powder Coats on Al, Anodize on Al etc.
- Measure nonmagnetic coatings over magnetic (ferrous) substrates (Magnetic Induction Probes)
- Non-magnetic metals (Zn, Cd) on ferrous substrates, Paint & Powder Coatings on Steel
