Surface Analyst XA evaluates material surfaces to reduce waste, rework, and recalls when poorly prepared substrate surfaces lead to bonding, coating, sealing, painting or printing failure.

Delivers real-time surface condition feedback. Applies technology employed by original handheld Surface Analyst to deposit a purified drop of water on a surface and measure contact angle. Automated process completes inspections on multiple surface points on a material surface at rates of up to 5,000 inspections per hour. Maps surface across multiple points. Measurement process is non-destructive. HPLC-grade water reportedly prevents contamination of inspected material surfaces. Measurements are touchless. Uses Archer software for data capture and transfer to MES. Can be integrated into production line using robot or linear actuator to move it from point to point, or it can be fixed in place on the line.
