Fischer Instrumentation has announced the launch of the modular Fischerscope MMS series of universal coating and material property measurement instruments.
The Fischerscope MMS can be configured with various Smart Probes, which enables the user to perform non-destructive measurements using: magnetic induction; eddy current; beta backscatter; Hall effect; or electrical resistance.
The company also offers a dual probe that combines the eddy current and magnetic induction methods in one probe.
Menu-driven screens are designed to guide even inexperienced users through calibration and measurement procedures, data evaluation and storage, and results documentation.
A parallel printer port allows data to be printed and a report generator enables custom reports to be rendered.
Fischer Instrumentation said the Fischerscope MMS can also be linked to a PC.
In addition, the company said the system can document, manage and evaluate data according to requirements; define control charts and evaluate measurement data using modern SPC/SQC methods; and organise collected measurement data.
The Fischerscope MMS features a high-contrast LCD display and a keyboard.
Via an interactive dialogue with the system, operators can handle measurement, storage, evaluation, and documentation tasks.
The system is said to be ideal for automated measurement processes and monitoring of production.
Fischer Instrumentation said the Fischerscope MMS has applications in the following areas: plating shops; PC-board manufacturing processes; and the automotive and aerospace industries.
