FISCHER BETASCOPE

FISCHER BETASCOPE

The BETASCOPE is a module for upgrading the MMS PC2 basic instrument for non-destructive coating thickness measurement by the beta-backscatter method. It is intended for organic and metallic coatings on a wide variety of substrates, provided that the atomic numbers of coating and base material differ sufficiently. Typical cases are nano paint coatings on stainless steel, thick gold coatings in the aerospace industry or thin insulating coatings.
