Bowman - Model G Series-XRF -Coating Thickness Measurement Systems
The G Series’ two most distinctive features are precision video imaging, and `bottom-up` measurement using a motorized Z-axis with laser-based auto-focus. The latter is a feature unique to Bowman. An available manual XY stage with 1.5 X 1.5` travel facilitates easy positioning of small and large parts. The chamber is relatively small when compared to other models like the B Series. The smaller chamber and footprint is well suited for jewelry and other precious metal analysis applications, and components such as connectors and fasteners. The standard configuration includes a single fixed collimator and a fixed focus camera. The solid-state PIN detector is included along with our long-life micro-focus x-ray tube. As with all Bowman models, the components can be upgraded to include multiple collimators, variable focal camera, or SDD detector.
The G Series XRF is ideal for labs and production lines, particularly where users have:
- Limited benchtop space
- Budget limitations
- A preference for `bottom-up` operation with a motorized Z axis
- The need to position smaller samples quickly and easily
