| 20090323895 | Method and Apparatus for Treating Workpieces - An electron beam is used to generate x-ray radiation in a workpiece, which radiation emerges on the workpiece back at sufficiently thin points of the workpiece and is detected by means of an x-ray radiation detector. Based on the x-ray radiation intensity and the momentary beaming-in position of the electron beam, the surface structure on both sides as well as the local material thickness can be determined. Based on such values, workpieces and/or workpiece treating systems can be adjusted, and vertical material removal in a material-removing workpiece treating system can be controlled. | 12-31-2009 |
