Iron plates are valuable assets in various manufacturing industries. They are the preferred choice used by manufacturers to build products, components and parts. The danger to the sheet is that it is corrosive. However, a good coating and specified thickness can protect its surface from corrosion for a long time.
It is very important to see that the iron sheet has a coating of a certain thickness, no less and no more than that. To ensure this, coating thickness measuring instruments can be used. There are two suitable methods - destructive and non-destructive.
The failure mode requires cutting the sheet and measuring the thickness with a caliper. This can lead to wrong values and material loss. However, non-destructive methods not only ensure precise measurements, but also eliminate material damage.
Coating Thickness Gauge Ferrous is a coating Thickness Gauge. It uses non-destructive techniques to evaluate coating thickness on ferrous substrates. Suitable for paint, rubber, plastic and other non-magnetic paints. The eddy current method is adopted as the working principle. It comes in a compact industrial carrying case and 5 sets of calibration foils and disks. Lead measurement probes are also part of the delivery. Users can perform single-point or multi-point calibrations. The thickness of the device ranges from 0-1250 microns.
To measure the coating thickness of an iron plate, the user simply places the gauge on the surface and sees a digital-based thickness reading. It is recommended to perform repeatable testing to achieve accuracy of test results.
