BRIDGE Technology offers the Jandel line of four-point probes directly from Jandel to end users at significant savings when compared to the prices that OEM's typically charge.
Features include:
- Upper and lower jeweled guides
- Solid tungsten carbide needles for superior durability (osmium alloy available)
- Video inspection system and interferometer used to verify tip radii, spacing and planerity to 1% mechanical accuracy
- Tip spring loads are checked by electronic force gauge to 1% accuracy
- Three basic shapes will fit all mountings and systems
- Anodized aluminum alloy construction with internal Teflon insulation for low leakage
- A High/Low Temperature version is available
- A Vacuum Chamber version is available
- A Hall Measurement version is available
