Spray-Applied Coating Thickness Meter

Spray coating thickness gauges measure coating thickness through magnetic induction or eddy current principles. Magnetic induction is used for steel substrates, while the eddy current method is applied to non-ferrous metal substrates. The instrument's probe contacts the coating surface, detects changes in electromagnetic properties between the substrate and the coating, and converts these changes into thickness values. It is used to monitor the thickness of spray coatings, electroplating, and anti-corrosion layers, ensuring coating uniformity.
Selection
When selecting a spray coating thickness gauge, consider the substrate type: use magnetic induction for ferrous substrates, eddy current for non-ferrous substrates, and dual-function types for mixed substrates. Choose the measurement range based on the coating thickness, with 0-2000 microns being common. For high measurement accuracy, opt for products with an error margin of ±1%. Select a small probe for curved surfaces and an auto-calibration model for rough surfaces. Choose a handheld type for portability needs and a benchtop type for fixed workstations.
