In-line, Real-time Si Coat Weight Profiling
For in-line process control needs, we offer the NEX LS linear scanner for cross and machine direction Si coat weight profiling of your process. To maintain consistent quality, improve efficiency, and minimize cost, the NEX LS is engineered to solve the challenges found in coating and converting processes. The intuitive design allows users to self-install and customize the system to meet their process needs.   
 
Benchtop EDXRF for Si Coat Weight Analysis
For rapid and accurate at-line solutions, the NEX QC Series benchtop EDXRF analyzers enable the measurement of very low silicone coating weights and metal catalysts in silicone coatings, all with one instrument. Challenging applications that were either marginal or not possible with earlier technologies are now a reality. As premium, cost-effective EDXRF spectrometers, the NEX QC Series deliver superior performance with an easy-to-learn software interface in a robust package specially designed for today’s silicone coating industry.
