Measuring the thickness of the electro-galvanized layer is directly related to the corrosion resistance and protection of the zinc coating. If the zinc layer is not thick enough, it may not provide sufficient protection, resulting in corrosion and damage to the metal surface, and even shortened service life. On the other hand, if the thickness of the zinc layer is too thick, it may lead to an increase in production costs, and may affect the appearance and quality of the coating. Therefore, for any industry that requires the use of electro-galvanized coatings, such as construction, automotive, electronics, machinery, etc., measuring the thickness of electro-galvanized layers is a necessary step to ensure the quality and durability of the coating while improving production efficiency and reduce costs.
Coating Thickness Gauge is a very common application in electrogalvanizing layer thickness measurement.
Preparation: Determine the electro-galvanized parts that need to be measured, turn on the coating Thickness Gauge and adjust it to zero.
Place the measuring probe: place the probe of the coating Thickness Gauge vertically on the galvanized surface to be measured, make sure that the probe is parallel to the surface and keep it fixed.
Take a measurement: Press the measurement button of the coating Thickness Gauge to start taking a measurement. During the measurement, keep the probe steady until the coating Thickness Gauge completes the measurement and displays the result.
Record the measurement results: record the measurement results, including the thickness value and measurement location of electro-galvanized. If you need to measure multiple locations, please repeat the above steps.
Analysis results: Analyze according to the measurement results to judge whether the thickness of the electro-galvanized layer meets the requirements. If it does not meet the requirements, it needs to be repaired or replaced accordingly.
Turn off the coating Thickness Gauge: After using the coating Thickness Gauge, press the off button to turn it off.
NBCHAO reminds you: When measuring the thickness of the electro-galvanized layer, the probe of the coating Thickness Gauge needs to be in close contact with the surface to be measured and kept stable, otherwise the measurement result may be affected. In addition, the operation of different types of coating Thickness Gauges may be different, and its operation manual should be read before use.
