What is it?

The F10-HC is described as a hardcoat thickness measurement instrument from Filmetrics. It is based on the F20 platform and uses spectral reflectance data analysis to provide film thickness measurement results quickly. The source states that its software is designed to measure single and multiple layers such as primer/hardcoat in polycarbonate and other hardcoat applications, and that it connects to the USB port of a Windows computer.
