Metal Substrate Coating Thickness Gauge

The metal substrate coating thickness gauge operates based on the principles of magnetic induction or eddy current. The probe contacts the coating, causing changes in the magnetic field to measure the thickness of non-conductive coatings on metal substrates. It is used to detect the thickness of anti-corrosion paint and electroplated layers, ensuring the quality of coatings. It is commonly applied in industries such as automotive and ship manufacturing.
Selection
When selecting, consider the substrate type: use magnetic induction for ferrous substrates and eddy current for non-ferrous substrates. Choose the measurement range based on the coating thickness. For curved surfaces, select a small probe. Check the instrument's calibration certificate to ensure environmental adaptability meets on-site conditions. Compare the ease of operation and service support of different brands.
