Cable Thickness Gauge

The cable thickness gauge measures the thickness of cable insulation using ultrasonic or laser technology. The principle involves emitting a signal that penetrates the material, receiving the echo, and calculating the time difference to determine the thickness value. It is used for quality monitoring during production and final product inspection to ensure that cable insulation meets standards.
Selection
Select ultrasonic or laser types based on cable material; consider the measurement range covering product specifications; ensure accuracy matches process requirements; check the protection rating for suitability in the workshop environment; confirm calibration methods and data output functions.
