Overview

SURAGUS GmbH is a German company based in Dresden that specializes in non-destructive material testing solutions. The company designs and manufactures a complete range of eddy current measurement instruments, from ergonomic handheld devices and versatile laboratory systems for single-point and mapping analysis to robust inline platforms that deliver real-time quality assurance and process control. Its technology uses a wide frequency range, including very high frequencies, combined with advanced measuring procedures to enable fast testing of both poorly and highly conductive materials. SURAGUS is a spin-off of the Fraunhofer Society, one of the largest German research organizations. Some members of the team previously worked in the research group of Prof. Henning Heuer at Fraunhofer IKTS Dresden, who served as an important mentor during the founding process. Since then, the company has grown continuously and now consists of an interdisciplinary team of mechanical and electrical engineers, mathematicians, physicists, programmers, and business administration specialists. The company is located in Silicon Saxony, described as the heart of Europe's largest microelectronics cluster and a hub of innovation, collaboration, and cutting-edge semiconductor technology. SURAGUS serves customers worldwide, offering 24/7 customer support and a portfolio that includes portable hand-held tools, table-sized benchtop testing solutions, robot-based systems, and standard and customized inline solutions. Its product lines include the EddyCus® Portable and EddyCus® Portable PS handheld instruments, the EddyCus® lab 2020 TM and EddyCus® lab 2020 RMB benchtop devices, the EddyCus® map 2530 series for imaging, the EddyCus® ResMapper fully-automated wafer imaging tool, and various inline integration modules and sensors. The measurement parameters covered include sheet resistance, metal layer thickness, resistivity, electrical anisotropy, emissivity, areal weight, defects and geometry, wet coating thickness, residual moisture, relative permittivity, fiber orientation, line resistance, and wire thickness.
