Acoustic Microscopy Imaging

Acoustic Microscopy Imaging is a tool which uses a high frequency ultrasound transducer in order to emit sound waves that are echoed by or transmitted through a material. It is a non-destructive screening technique that offers a good insight into the caliber of the package and the device construction.

This screening method is necessary for counterfeit detection. It is useful for detecting void formations, delamination, cracks and fractures, and other internal defects that might be hidden within inherently susceptible materials and device types.

The tool allows us scanning a wide range of component anomalies. This can include original part markings on a remarked component, sanding marks which weren’t detected in other testing methods and additional internal defects that are common in counterfeit components.
