Coating Thickness Gauge for Aluminum

The coating thickness gauge for aluminum operates on the principles of eddy current or electromagnetic induction. When the probe contacts the aluminum surface, it generates an alternating magnetic field. Variations in the coating thickness cause differences in the induced current, which the instrument uses to calculate the coating thickness. It is used to measure the thickness of coatings such as paint or powder on aluminum plates and profiles, ensuring coating quality.
Selection
When selecting, consider the shape of the aluminum substrate: use a single-point probe for flat surfaces and a small probe for curved surfaces. The coating material determines the principle: use the eddy current method for non-conductive coatings and the magnetic induction method for coatings containing iron pigments. The measurement range should cover the common 20–500 μm. Choose an accuracy of ±1–3%. The probe's wear resistance should accommodate frequent use in production lines. Portable devices are suitable for on-site spot checks, while fixed devices are used for online detection.
