Wire Thickness Gauge

The wire thickness gauge measures the thickness of wire insulation through contact or non-contact methods. The contact method uses a mechanical probe to directly touch the sample, while the non-contact method calculates thickness by reflecting lasers or ultrasonic waves. It is used for quality control on production lines and sampling inspections in laboratories to ensure that wire insulation meets standard requirements.
Selection
When selecting a wire thickness gauge, consider the material and surface characteristics of the wire. Contact-type gauges are suitable for soft surfaces, while non-contact types are preferable for easily deformable materials. Determine the instrument’s resolution based on measurement accuracy requirements, with 0.01mm precision typically sufficient for routine inspections. Select the measurement frequency according to the production line speed, opting for models with fast response times for high-speed production lines. Additionally, consider environmental adaptability, ensuring waterproof designs are used in humid conditions.
