Paint Film Plating Thickness Gauge

The paint film coating thickness gauge measures coating thickness through magnetic induction or eddy current principles. The magnetic induction method is used for non-magnetic coatings on steel substrates, while the eddy current method is applied to insulating coatings on non-ferrous metal substrates. The instrument's probe contacts the sample, causing a change in signal, and directly displays the thickness value. It is used for quality inspection of surface coatings in applications such as automobiles, ships, and steel structures.
Selection
When selecting, confirm that the substrate properties and coating type match the measurement principle. Ensure the measurement range covers the actual thickness and the probe size is suitable for the shape of the test piece. Check the instrument’s calibration certificate and error range, and verify its environmental adaptability meets on-site conditions. Choose operational convenience and data storage functions according to your needs, and ensure the supplier provides technical support and maintenance services.
