Paint and coating impact test

Thickness gauge

The thickness gauge is one of the most essential and basic equipments of paint and resin and industrial coating laboratories. The thickness gauge is used to inspect and measure the thickness of paint and coating, the thickness of plating and the thickness of galvanized, the thickness of anodizing and the thickness of coating on wood, asphalt and concrete. And … is used. Coating thickness measurement is very important in QC discussion in product quality control, process control and cost control of consumables. Among the important industries where the thickness gauge device is used are paint and resin industries, powder paints, traffic paints, construction paints, industry electroplating, aluminum anodizing industry, automobile industry, pipe coating industry, home appliance industry, etc.

This device is available in self-probe and separate probe models.

Ferrous (F) series devices for measuring the thickness of paint, glaze, epoxy, phosphate, hot galvanized, hard, etc. are based on ferrous metals.

Non Ferrous (N) series devices for measuring the thickness of paint, glaze, epoxy, Teflon, anodizing, aluminum, etc. are based on non-ferrous metals.

 (FNF) series devices for measuring coating thickness are based on ferrous and non-ferrous metals and have both high capabilities.

The thickness of the non-metal base:

 Wood thickness gauge This device is used to measure the thickness of non-metallic and polymer-based coatings such as (rubber, plastic, concrete, wood, asphalt, composite materials, etc.). A thickness gauge is used.

Ultrasonic thickness gauge

The application of this device is to measure the wall thickness of metal, steel, plastic pipes, etc.

After some time, material transfer pipes get corroded and the thickness of the pipe wall decreases. The thickness of ultrasonic gauges by sending ultrasonic waves and its reflection is able to measure the wall thickness of metal and plastic pipes, etc.

Thickness gauges

Paint thickness gauges are used in different fields to measure the thickness of polymer surfaces, concrete, wood, walls, steel and plastic pipes, etc.

 Various types of thickness gauges are used to measure paint, glaze, epoxy, and galvanized coatings. Iron base as well as anodizing and Teflon are non-ferrous based. Also, ultrasonic thickness gauges are used to measure the coating on polymer surfaces and to measure the wall thickness of steel and plastic
