Tracing Success
Competency and experience
For nearly 25 years, HELMUT FISCHER
has been developing, manufacturing and
distributing X-ray fluorescence instruments
for coating thickness measurement and
materials analysis. By now, thousands of
FISCHERSCOPE X-RAY instruments are
used by customers worldwide. Even instruments of the very first generation are
still operating as perfectly as on their first
day evidence for the exceptionally high
reliability of the instrument designs.
Experiences and ideas of costumers are
continuously integrated into our development. This is an important reason for the
international technological leadership role
of HELMUT FISCHER and its X-ray development team. The great component
manufacturing depth in our own plants
ensures the highest quality and minimizes
supplier dependence. In this manner,
FISCHER is able to flexibly implement particular customer specifications.
The measurement method
Physical principle of the energy-dispersive
X-ray fluorescence method (EDXRF):
The radiation of an X-ray tube excites the
sample to emit X-ray fluorescence radiation, which is characteristic for each element. The detector registers the energy
spectrum. The elements contained in the
sample can be identified through the
characteristic energies of the peaks of the
spectrum. The concentrations of the
elements, or the coating thicknesses, respectively, are determined by the intensity
of their radiation portions. A proportional
counter tube or a semiconductor detector
delivers the measuring signal.

TASK programming for automated measurements
Even untrained workers can start complex measurement sequences with the click of the mouse on an icon
or with the push of a button. A Task routine is a program
written by the user for a measurement sequence.
IF queries and loops are possible.
Several products can be used in combination.

mq factor = reliability check for the measurement
The mq factor is used to avoid erroneous measurements
and evaluation errors.
The mq factor is a measure for the conformity between
the measured and the theoretical spectrum.
The mq factor allows the user to evaluate the quality
of the measurement result.
Multiple functions and simple

FISCHERSCOPE X-RAY measuring system hardware
Ready to measure at any time
The intelligent design of the measuring instrument
ensures measurements can be made continuously.
Cooling breaks are not necessary.
The user may start a measurement at any time without
the need to wait for the ramp-up of the high voltage for
the X-ray tube.
Adapted primary X-radiation
The incident X-ray beam that produces the fluorescence
effect from the sample can be modified to suit the
measuring application. This is achieved by varying the
high voltage and selecting the appropriate primary filter .
Optimal excitation conditions can be set for each
measuring application.
XY(Z) measuring stages with a
very fast Y-axis
The measuring stage travels significantly faster to and
from the measuring position and the loading position
than in instruments of a simpler design.
Ideal for quickly changing specimens.
Ergonomic instrument
operation
Available operating elements:
- Mouse and software command buttons, or
- Push buttons on the front control panel.
Each user finds the control elements that are most convenient for him/her for controlling the measurement system.
Often used control elements are accessible quickly and
easily.
Measurement and control software WinFTM V.6
Coating thickness measurement
and materials analysis are
possible simultaneously
Coating thickness measurement and materials analysis
can be performed simultaneously. Alloy layers can be
analyzed. In addition, a measurement method that is not
influenced by the substrate material is made possible :
During the coating thickness measurement, the substrate material is analyzed automatically and simultaneously. Materials underneath a top coating can be analyzed as well, without the need to remove such coatings
(as long as the coatings are not too thick ).
- Greatest possible application variety.
- In many cases, the normalization can be omitted
when making measurements on different substrate
materials. This makes work easier and saves time!
- The reliability of the measurement results is increased
by a measurement method that is not influenced by
the substrate material.
Calibrated measurements
Using up to 64 calibration standards per measuring
application provides measurement results of highest
accuracy.
Reliable measurement results.
Results are traceable according to
DIN EN ISO / IEC 17025.
Standard-free measurements
The fundamental parameter method enables the standard-free measurement of all physically useful samples.
Samples of an unknown composition can be analyzed
quickly and simply. Even samples for which calibration
standards are not yet available can be measured with
high accuracy.
Automatic product selection
A sample with an unknown composition can be
assigned automatically to an existing product
(measurement parameter) after a short measurement.
A fitting product class must have been selected.
Automatic product selection brings more comfort and
speed to routine measurements.
The measurement uncertainty
can be determined prior to
making measurements
The expected measurement uncertainty of a certain
measuring application can be calculated in advance
without the need for an actual specimen.
The possible measurement range, for example of a
novel coating system, can be estimated by specifying a
max. admissible measurement uncertainty and
measuring time.
Program module for convenient
setup of measurement print
forms
Due to the user-friendly word processing program of the
PDM Software, the user can design his/her own layout
of the measurement print forms, including video image
and company logo.
Setup of an individually adjusted measurement print
form, including statistical evaluations, is possible with
little effort.
Perfect presentation and
evaluation of several spectra
simultaneously
Up to 27 spectra can be presented simultaneously - in
any desired combination. This is advantageous for
comparison of results of different samples. A certain
spectrum can be selected as a reference for the current
analytical evaluation.
The spectra required for the evaluation can be clearly
shown and hidden.
Overview image of the specimen
surface
For a better presentation of the measurement location in
the video image, WinFTM can compile an overview
image of the specimen surface from several individual
video images. The user can travel directly with the click
of the mouse to certain measurement spots within the
overall image.
- This simplifies programming of the XY(Z) measurement
point coordinates.
- Easy orientation on large area specimens.
- Using this tool, the user can very easily travel directly
to particular coordinates.
