Thickness Gauge metal thickness Meter

The metal thickness gauge measures the thickness of metal materials using ultrasonic, eddy current, or magnetic induction principles. Ultrasonic gauges calculate thickness based on the reflection time of sound waves, while eddy current and magnetic induction methods detect thickness through changes in electromagnetic fields. It is used for measuring the thickness of metal sheets, pipes, and coatings, ensuring compliance with requirements in manufacturing, quality inspection, and maintenance.
Selection
When selecting a thickness gauge or metal thickness meter, consider the type of metal being measured, the thickness range, and the surface condition. Use the eddy current principle for non-ferrous metals, magnetic induction for ferromagnetic materials, and ultrasonic methods for general-purpose applications. Choose digital or analog (pointer) types based on accuracy requirements. Environmental factors such as temperature and coatings influence sensor selection. Portable models are suitable for on-site use, while fixed types are used in production lines.

Application of Coating Thickness Gauges in Electroplating Thickness Detection
Coating thickness gauges are used to measure the thickness of electroplated layers, primarily employing the electromagnetic induction method for measuring non-magnetic coatings on magnetic substrates, or the eddy current method for measuring insulating coatings on non-magnetic metal substrates.
Eddy current thickness gauge measures metal coatings on non-conductive substrates.
The eddy current thickness gauge utilizes the principle of electromagnetic induction, generating an alternating magnetic field through the probe coil to induce eddy currents in the metal coating, thereby measuring thickness based on changes in coil impedance.
Coulometric Method Coating Thickness Gauge for Non-Destructive Measurement of Precious Metal Coatings
The coulometric coating thickness gauge measures the thickness by calculating the amount of electricity required to dissolve the precious metal coating through the principle of electrolytic dissolution. This method is non-destructive to the overall sample, only forming tiny electrolytic spots.
Comparison of Dual-Principle Instruments: Magnetic Induction vs. Eddy Current for Coating Thickness Measurement
This article compares the principles of two coating thickness gauges. The choice of method depends on the substrate material: magnetic induction is used for magnetic metals, while eddy current is applied for non-magnetic metals.
Eddy current thickness gauge detects coatings on non-ferrous metals.
The eddy current thickness gauge operates on the principle of electromagnetic induction, generating an alternating magnetic field through the probe coil, which induces eddy currents on the surface of non-ferrous metal substrates.
Selection of Coating Thickness Measurement Methods: Coulometry vs. Dissolution in Electrolytic Thickness Gauges.
This article compares two techniques in electrolytic thickness gauges: the coulometric method and the dissolution method. The coulometric method measures coating thickness through electrochemical dissolution, making it suitable for single-layer metal coatings with simple operation and high accuracy. The dissolution method, on the other hand, measures thickness via chemical dissolution, making it more appropriate for multilayer or complex coatings.
