Non-contact Powder Thickness Gauge

Non-contact powder thickness gauges use laser or ultrasonic waves to scan the powder surface and calculate the thickness by measuring the time difference or phase changes of the reflected signals. They are used for real-time monitoring of powder coating thickness on production lines, such as in coatings and plastics, to avoid material damage caused by contact.
Selection
When selecting, consider that the measurement range must cover the actual powder thickness, and the accuracy must meet the process requirements. Choose a laser or ultrasonic type based on the material characteristics, and opt for a dust-proof model in environments with high dust levels. Check whether the instrument's response speed matches the production line speed, and ensure the calibration method is simple and reliable.
