Category:

XRF P Series allows for the measurement of various sample sizes, shapes, and quantities. Its high-precision programmable X-Y stage enables easy operation through software, allowing users to move to measurement locations with a mouse or create multi-point measurement programs with a single click. This optimizes testing for critical areas and larger sample volumes. The standard configuration includes a 4-position collimator assembly, a variable-focus camera for measuring recessed areas, an SDD detector, and a long-life micro-focus X-ray tube. Collimators and focal distances can be customized to suit specific applications.

PRODUCT VIEWED

The K Series is a high-precision XRF system designed for diverse sample analysis, featuring a large 12″ x 12″ measurable area, programmable X-Y stage, and auto multi-collimator for flexible spot sizes. Its variable-focus camera (0.25″ to 3.5″) and table view navigation enable effortless measurements. For ultra-small features, the poly-capillary optics version offers 15μm resolution, high-precision stage (2µm), and 140x magnification camera with digital zoom. Equipped with an SDD detector and long-life X-ray tube, it ensures accuracy and compliance with ASTM B568, ISO 3497, and IPC-4552

The W Series Micro XRF from Bowman features a 7.5 µm FWHM X-ray beam, the smallest in the world for coating thickness analysis using XRF technology. This makes it ideal for measuring small components like BGAs and solder bumps. It includes a dual-camera system with 140X magnification for precision imaging and a secondary camera for live viewing. A programmable X-Y stage with ±1 µm accuracy, along with pattern recognition and auto-focus, enables precise measurements and automated multi-point analysis. The system also offers 3D mapping for coating topography visualization. Standard configurations include a molybdenum anode tube (with optional chromium or tungsten) and a high-resolution Silicon Drift Detector. The instrument can measure up to five coating layers simultaneously and operates with Archer software, which streamlines measurement, reporting, and application setup.

The O Series combines high performance and ultra-small x-ray spot size (80μm FWHM) using poly-capillary optics, which maximize x-ray flux for higher sensitivity and faster testing of small components or thin coatings. Unlike traditional collimators, this system retains nearly 100% of the tube flux, ensuring superior repeatability in shorter test times. It features a high-resolution SDD detector, 55x video magnification, 7x digital zoom, and a programmable X-Y stage. Due to its close focal distance, samples must be flat. Now available with an extended stage option for greater flexibility.

The B Series is a basic XRF measurement system with a top-down design for easy operation. It features a fixed sample stage, requiring users to manually align the test position using video imaging. The sample chamber is similar to the P Series but without a programmable X-Y stage. The system includes a fixed collimator, fixed-focus camera, SDD detector, and a durable micro-focus X-ray tube. Notably, the B Series can be upgraded with additional collimators or a variable-focus camera to enhance analytical flexibility.
