Paint Layer Thickness Gauge

The coating thickness gauge measures the thickness of coatings through magnetic induction or eddy current principles. The magnetic induction method is used for ferrous materials, while the eddy current method is applied to non-ferrous materials. It is utilized to inspect coating quality, ensuring that the thickness meets standards, and finds applications in industries such as automotive and construction.
Selection
When selecting a coating thickness gauge, consider the substrate type: use magnetic induction type for ferrous substrates and eddy current type for non-ferrous substrates. Ensure the measurement range covers the expected thickness, and the accuracy meets the error requirements. The device should be easy to operate and suitable for on-site use. Additionally, consider factors such as brand reliability and price.
