System SMX-ISI
 


Monitor Solar PV Thin Film Depositions In-Situ

System SMX-ISI enables you to integrate XRF film measurement and process controls directly into your line at key insertion points. System ISI is capable of accommodating any substrate material, including flexible roll-fed substrates for web coating processes and rigid float glass substrates in batch processes.

System SMX-ISI is similar to the SMX-ILH remote tool, except that it is incorporated into your process at a clean vacuum insertion point. The x-ray measurement head is mounted to a specially designed port (see below right); x-rays pass in and out of your process vessel, enabling film measurement and process control while under vacuum.

The free-standing X-Ray Control Station (with available light pole alarm system) may be positioned either adjacent to or remotely from the process. A single SMX-ISI control station is capable of controlling multiple Ethernet-linked x-ray head modules.

Static SMX-ISI
configurations position the x-ray head at a stationary location along the web or glass panel line. Linear SMX-ISI configurations are designed to facilitate cross-web or panel gradient analysis, and may incorporate multiple vacuum/x-ray interface ports

ISI Station & X-Ray Head

SMX-ISI is incorporated into your process at a clean vacuum insertion point. The x-ray head is bolted to a specially designed port (see example below), allowing x-rays pass in and out of your process vessel.
