Paperboard Thickness Meter

The cardboard thickness gauge applies a fixed pressure to the cardboard through a contact measuring head and directly reads the thickness value. It is used to detect the thickness uniformity of cardboard and corrugated paper, ensuring production quality control. It is applied in the quality inspection processes of paper mills and packaging factories.
Selection
Ensure the measurement range and accuracy meet product standards when selecting, and consider the compatibility of sample size with the measurement stage. The contact pressure should be adapted to material characteristics, and the operation interface should be simple and easy to read. Regular calibration functions must be comprehensive, and the structure should be sturdy to suit the workshop environment.
