Thickness Check

Thickness inspection measures the distance between the material surface and a reference plane through contact or non-contact methods. Contact methods use probes to press against the surface, while non-contact methods utilize principles such as optics or ultrasound. This process is used to monitor the thickness uniformity of coatings, films, plates, and other materials, ensuring that product specifications meet requirements.
Selection
The selection of thickness inspection methods should consider material characteristics: contact methods are suitable for hard materials, while non-contact methods are recommended for soft or fragile materials. Choose instruments with appropriate measuring ranges and resolutions based on accuracy requirements. Determine whether to use portable or online inspection methods based on the production environment. Check the instrument calibration certificates and measurement repeatability data.
