Handheld Gauge Measures Full Range of Copper Thicknesses

ELK GROVE VILLAGE, IL (January 8, 2004) Oxford Instruments Coating Measurement (OICM) introduces the CM95, an upgrade to their 90 Series handheld copper thickness measurement gauge. The CM95 is the only all-in-one gauge that offers users the ability to measure the complete range of copper thicknesses, from 0.125 to 4.0 oz. (4.375 to 140 µm). The CM95 provides accurate measurements of copper foil on rigid, flexible, single- and double-sided or multi-layer boards, as well as bare foil material.

The CM95 is also notable for its use of OICM's exclusive soft-touch probe tips to prevent marring or damage to the copper surface. Just touch the probe to the copper surface and examine the thickness indication on the bright LED display. Since it is unaffected by laminate core thickness, the CM95 displays results in just one second. And without any standards required, it is extremely user friendly.

An inexpensive solution to material waste and rejects, this accurate, factory-calibrated gauge lets you avoid costly scrap, errors and rework at the drilling station by identifying out-of-spec copper coatings at incoming inspection. The CM95 operates on a single 9-volt battery, enabling over 8000 measurements before battery replacement. This convenient, CE-approved gauge comes with a one-year warranty and is fully backed by OICM.
