Stainless steel paint film thickness Gauge

The stainless steel paint film thickness gauge measures coating thickness through magnetic induction or eddy current principles. The magnetic induction method is used for steel substrates, where the magnetic resistance of the probe varies with the thickness of the paint film. The eddy current method is applied to non-ferrous metal substrates, where the electromagnetic field of the probe is influenced by the paint film. The instrument directly displays the coating thickness value and is used for quality control in the surface spraying and electroplating layers of stainless steel products.
Selection
When selecting, ensure that the substrate type matches the measurement principle: use magnetic induction for ferrous materials and eddy current for non-ferrous materials. Consider that the measurement range covers common coating thicknesses and the accuracy meets process requirements. The probe size should be compatible with the workpiece shape; use a small probe for curved surfaces. Check the instrument calibration method, ensuring it supports substrate zeroing and calibration with standard foils. The housing protection rating should be suitable for the workshop environment.
