Wall Thickness Meter
Non-destructive coating and dry film thickness (DFT) measuring device for use on ferrous (Type F) and non-ferrous (Type N) metal substrates
This is a wall thickness meter used for the rapid determination of coating thicknesses on ferrous (Type F) and non-ferrous (Type N) metals. The wall thickness meter or gauge automatically detects the type of metal to be measured. The wall thickness meter uses magnetic induction (ferrous) or eddy current (non-ferrous) to take non-destructive measurements of coating and dry film thickness (DFT) on metal substrates such as steel and aluminum.
This wall thickness meter is ideal for painted and powder-coated surface testing, automotive paint inspection, coated material testing, and manufacturing quality control applications. Alarm limits can be set in the wall thickness meter to notify the user when a coating is too thick or too thin. If a coating thickness measurement falls outside the established limits, a message appears on the display to alert the user.
