Application
A portable coating thickness measuring gauge for the non-destructive measurement of paint, lacquer, plastic and other insulating coatings on plastic, wood, glass and ceramic as well as polymer layers on metal.
As a special feature, the gauge offers the possibility to measure the total thickness as well as the individual layers of a multi-layer system in only one measuring process. The robust gauge is appropriate for use in the laboratory, in production and on site.
Measuring Procedure
When the probe is placed on the coated surface, it sends sound pulses which penetrate the coating through to the base material. Provided the coatings and the substrate possess different acoustic properties, these pulses are reflected by the different surfaces and transmitted to the transducer in the probe. The various time intervals are measured and calculated by a microprocessor to give individual and total coating thickness. The time to obtain a reading is approx. two seconds or less. If the portable MiniPrint is connected all readings and statistical data can be printed out in individual memories and batches.
