Digital Thickness Meter

The digital thickness gauge emits signals through contact or non-contact probes, measures the time difference or intensity changes of signals reflected or transmitted by the material, and converts them into thickness values for display. It is used for detecting the thickness of coatings, plastics, and other layers to ensure product thickness meets standards.
Selection
When selecting a digital thickness gauge, consider the material type: use eddy current for metals and ultrasonic for non-metals. The measurement range should cover the sample thickness, and the accuracy must meet inspection requirements. The probe size should be suitable for the measurement area, and environmental factors, such as temperature, should be considered for stability. Additionally, ease of operation and maintenance costs are important factors to evaluate.
