Iron-Aluminum Dual-Purpose Film Thickness Gauge

The dual-purpose iron-aluminum thickness gauge employs magnetic induction and eddy current principles to measure the thickness of non-magnetic coatings on iron substrates and insulating coatings on aluminum substrates, respectively. It is used for rapid on-site detection of coating and plating thickness on metal surfaces, with applications in quality control and coating process monitoring in the automotive and household appliance industries.
Selection
When selecting, consider the compatibility of the substrate type with the instrument's measurement mode, confirm the range and accuracy based on the coating thickness range, determine whether a portable or benchtop structure is suitable based on the operating environment, review calibration certificates and probe wear resistance, and compare the functionality and stability of different brands in conjunction with the budget.
