The STM-9000 provides accurate tin coating thickness (tin plating analysis) using the Windows™ operating system. It is a computerized coulometric metal thickness gauge for tin plated steel.
The system uses new electrolytic/coulometric hardware and software. These coulometer cells are used by the STM-9000 to inspect the tinplate samples and perform thickness measurement testing on the tin plated ferrum.
The operator inserts the metal sample (strip, or actual sample – coated with tin) into the cell. Electrolytic fluid fills the cell and the cell is closed. Next, the measurement process can proceed, with top only, top & bottom or 3x top and bottom measurements. Profiles are presented for each of the tin plate steel measurements.
Range TP: 0.2 to 30gr/m2 (0.02 to 2.5 LB/BB)
Range TFS: TFS 5 to 1000 mg/m2 (50 to 10000 mg/ft2)
