Eddy-Current Layer Thickness Gauge

The eddy current coating thickness gauge generates a high-frequency electromagnetic field through its probe, creating eddy currents on the surface of the conductive substrate. Changes in coating thickness alter the intensity of the eddy currents, and the instrument converts the measured impedance variations into thickness readings. It is used to measure the thickness of non-conductive coatings on metal substrates such as aluminum and copper, commonly applied in industrial inspections like anodized coatings and paint films.
Selection
When selecting, confirm the conductivity of the substrate and the non-conductive properties of the coating. Match the probe curvature to the shape of the surface to be measured. Ensure the measurement range covers the actual thickness range, and verify the instrument's calibration certificate and temperature stability. Prioritize models with wear-resistant probes and ensure that the data storage and transmission functions meet on-site recording requirements.
