Product Information

iEDX-150µT – The Pinnacle of X-Ray Plating Thickness Gauge Technology for Ultra-Thin Coatings
In the high-precision manufacturing of electronic components, semiconductors, and microcircuits, surface quality control is a vital factor determining product lifespan and reliability. Excessively thick plating wastes precious metals like gold (Au), palladium (Pd), and platinum (Pt). Conversely, insufficient plating thickness fails to protect underlying components, leading to rapid oxidation or catastrophic short circuits.
To solve this rigorous industrial challenge, Maxlab Equipment proudly introduces the ultimate leading-edge solution: the iEDX-150µT – a specialized micro-spot X-ray plating thickness gauge designed engineered specifically for ultra-thin coatings and microstructural analysis.

1. Overview of the iEDX-150µT Coating Thickness Gauge
The iEDX-150µT is a premium Energy Dispersive X-ray Fluorescence (EDXRF) coating thickness gauge researched and developed by Sense Instruments. This system is specifically tailored to meet the strict quality demands of high-definition electronic electroplating, connector manufacturing, lead frames, and Multi-Layer Ceramic Capacitors (MLCC).
The defining feature that sets the iEDX-150µT apart from conventional XRF machines on the market is its integration of multi-capillary X-ray optics technology. This advanced optic design concentrates the X-ray beam into an ultra-fine focal spot, allowing the equipment to accurately measure microscopic areas where traditional machines simply cannot function.

2. Core Technical Features of the iEDX-150µT
Breakthrough Multi-Capillary Optics
Standard thickness gauges rely on mechanical collimators to restrict the X-ray beam, which drastically reduces beam intensity when shrinking the spot size. The iEDX-150µT overcomes this limitation using proprietary multi-capillary optics.
The X-rays are gently curved and focused into a high-energy micro-spot. Consequently, the focal spot size achieves a microscopic range of 15µm to 50µm while maintaining high energy density. This significantly shortens measurement times and enhances data accuracy for nanometer-scale layers.
High-Precision Multi-Layer Analysis
Equipped with a next-generation high-resolution detector, the system effortlessly analyzes complex multi-layer coatings (up to 4 to 5 layers stacked) and alloy coatings. The instrument delivers precision on ultra-thin gold, palladium, or nickel layers down to a few nanometers on printed circuit boards and delicate electronic parts.
High-Definition Optical Target Positioning
To assist technicians in perfectly targeting microscopic areas measuring only a few dozen micrometers, the iEDX-150µT features a high-resolution, large-zoom optical camera system paired with automatic alignment software. Operators can clearly view the microcircuit surface and select the exact measurement point with a single mouse click.

3. Industrial Applications of the iEDX-150µT
This system serves as an indispensable Quality Control and Quality Assurance (QC/QA) link in the supply chains of global technology leaders like Huawei, Molex, and JCET. Specifically, it excels in:
  • Connector Manufacturing: Measuring gold, silver, and nickel plating thickness on signal pins and high-speed data cables to guarantee stable conductivity.
  • MLCC Production: Testing the outer termination electrodes of miniature capacitors where standard mechanical probes cannot reach.
  • Semiconductor Industry: Analyzing micro-solder bumps, lead frame plating layers, and protective surface films on integrated circuit packages.
  • Advanced Surface Finishing: Testing chemical bath compositions alongside routine thickness inspections of plated plastic parts and high-end hardware.

4. Why Invest in the iEDX-150µT?
Comparison Criteria Conventional XRF Gauges iEDX-150µT X-Ray Gauge
Measurement Spot Size Typically 0.1mm – 0.3mm (Too large for microchips) Ultra-fine 15µm – 50µm
X-ray Count Rate Weakens with smaller collimators, long wait times Extremely strong due to focused capillary optics
Ultra-thin Capabilities Higher margin of error at nanometer levels High sensitivity tailored for nanometer-scale testing
Target Alignment Accuracy Prone to background interference from surrounding areas Locks onto micro-targets precisely without background noise
Investing in the iEDX-150µT X-ray plating thickness gauge empowers manufacturers to boost their factory yield rates, minimize expensive precious metal consumption, and seamlessly satisfy rigorous international compliance audits from top-tier global clients.

5. Operations and Maintenance for Long-Term Precision
As a sophisticated, high-tech analytical instrument, proper handling ensures the system retains its precise calibration over a long lifespan:
  1. Installation Environment: The gauge must be stationed in a cleanroom or clean lab space with stable air conditioning (ideally 20-25°C) and low humidity to shield the X-ray detector and control boards.
  2. Routine Calibration: Technicians should utilize the certified standard calibration foils provided with the machine weekly or monthly to counter natural software drift and keep measurements true.
  3. Radiation Safety: The unit is enclosed in a fully shielded protective housing to prevent any radiation leakage, meeting strict international safety compliance. Operators must simply follow basic chamber door guidelines.
