Plate/Sheet Thickness Gauge

The plate thickness gauge measures material thickness using contact or non-contact sensors. The contact type employs a mechanical probe to press against the sample, while the non-contact type utilizes ultrasonic or laser reflection principles. It is used to detect the thickness uniformity of flat materials such as paper, film, and metal sheets, ensuring that production meets specification requirements.
Selection
When selecting a plate thickness gauge, consider the material type and thickness range. Soft materials are suitable for contact-type gauges, while fragile materials require non-contact types. Choose sensor resolution based on precision requirements, and determine the protection level according to the production environment. The operation interface should be user-friendly, calibration functions must be comprehensive, and maintenance costs should be reasonably evaluated.
