LS236 car paint meter five major advantages

LS236 paint film instrument is professionally used for automotive paint thickness inspection. It features the classic function of automatically identifying iron, aluminum body and plastic substrate. In addition, LS236 adopts new intelligent identification algorithm, which can detect accident cars refined with metallic putty, and can also automatically identify galvanized-iron high-grade anti-corrosion body. Equipped with high-definition LCD screen and ultra-low temperature OLED screen, it can be used normally in strong light and -40 °C temperature environment. The dual-screen design ensures that users can read quickly when measuring the car at any angle.

Features

Detect the metallic putty quickly

If a car shell has been repaired with metallic putty, LS236 car paint meter can dig out it accompanied two buzzers and display red backlight.

Equipped with APP, can generate test reports

With Bluetooth data transmission function, online operation with cell phone APP, test data can be generated test report, and the report can be saved or shared.

Identify galvanized-iron car body automatically

The meter can automatically identify the galvanized-iron car body, which can be used to assist in judging whether the car has replaced the factory originals. When it detects galvanized-iron car body, the screen is displayed in green backlight and the body is indicated as FeZn.

Various functions, practical and convenient

Automotive Paint meter has multiple functions and powerful performance which can quickly discover iron, aluminum and non-metallic materials on.

FAQ

  1. 1. The difference between LS236 and LS233 car paint meter?

    LS236 and LS233 car paint meter both can identify metallic puttty and iron galvanized car body, however LS236 features a three-color backlight display function, LS233 does not. When discovered metallic putty, the screen of LS235 will turn red while turns green recognizing iron galvanized car body.

  2. 2. How to judge whether the car has been repainted or not?

    At present, the paint thickness of different brands of cars on the market is not exactly the same. Therefore, when measuring the paint film thickness of a certain car, you can first measure the paint thickness on the car roof, because car roof is rarely affected by external forces and scratches, dents or deformation, it is more likely to retain the original paint thickness. To test the specfic position of the car, you can take the upper, lower, left, right, and middle five points to test and calculate the average value of the five data. If the value of one point is greater than the average value of more than 30μm, this position may have been repainted.

  3. 3.Under what circumstances we need to make zero adjustment?

    When the body material of the car under test changes; the instrument has not been used for a long time; when the ambient temperature changed significantly; after the battery is replaced; when it can not recognize ferrou putty or iron galvanized cae body.

  4. 4. Can I customize the LOGO and shell of the car paint meter?

    Yes, but there is a minimum order quantity. The minimum order quantity for customized LOGO: 100pcs; the minimum order quantity for customized instrument shell: 500pcs. If you want to know more about the Linshang coating thickness gauge, Please click “Paint Thickness Gauge Selection and FAQ”.
