Why do We Need A Coating Thickness Gauge?

1. What is a coating thickness gauge? 

Coating thickness gauges are commonly used for industrial thickness measurements such as steel sheets, paper, paint, coating, and dry film thickness. It can be said that although coating thickness gauges are less common in everyday life, but they are very broad in industrial applications.

2. Why do we need to use a coating thickness gauge in industrial production? 

The reasons for using coating thickness gauges vary from industry to industry, but one thing is common. For example, in the production process of paper, we need to keep abreast of the thickness of the paper, not only because of the different thickness of the paper, but also the cost of the paper. If the thickness of each sheet of paper is 0.1 mm, but the thickness is not controlled, the thickness of each sheet is increased to 0.2 mm, and the cost will increase. In addition, the thickness of the paper is different, and the experience is different for the user. If the normal work paper is 0.08 mm, but the thickness is not controlled during the production process, causing the paper thickness to drop to 0.04 mm, the pen tip may pierce the paper directly during writing.

3. What do each industry use for coating thickness gauges?

The answer is to standardize production. The use of coating thickness gauges for industrial product applications is primarily intended to ensure that each product is manufactured at the factory to ensure the quality and appearance of the product.

4. What types of coating thickness gauges are available? 

Strictly speaking, the coating thickness gauge is a special instrument mainly used for detecting the thickness of a work piece coating, but it is also an instrument for measuring thickness, also called a thickness gauge. However, it is not possible to classify coating thickness gauges into paint thickness gauge, dry film thickness gauge, paper thickness gauge, etc. according to the industry of use. Instead, it should be classified from the measurement principle of the coating thickness gauge. The main types of coating thickness gauges are: ultrasonic thickness gauge, radiometric thickness gauge, eddy current thickness gauge, magnetic thickness gauge. The difference in the amount principle of the coating thickness gauge will result in different shape and measurement accuracy of the instrument.

What is coating thickness gauge and the classification of coating thickness gauges is here. I hope that the above introduction can help users understand the knowledge of the coating thickness gauge.
