Coating Thickness Gauges
PCE Instruments offers coating thickness gauges that help you to determine the thickness of different layers of corrosion and variable layers of paint.  The coating thickness gauges can be used on all surfaces of metallic materials (metal, iron, non ferrous metal alloys).
The principles for measuring the coating thickness gauges is by the magnetic induction or by means of analyzing an eddy current. The devices work non-destructive which is very useful for most surfaces since materials have to be used afterwards. Therefore these devices cannot miss a place where galvanizing processes are carried out. Coating thickness gauges are particularly suitable for quality control as well as different production purposes in the process of anodizing, or galvanizing. 

You will also be able to find such different wall thickness gauges that determine the degree of hardness by means of plastic, glass and metal walls and windows. Furthermore you will be able to find a special manual tester with a head unit to test temperatures up to 300°C. Our wall thickness gauges are particularly suitable to check the thickness of the wall for steam pipes and also other pressure pipes. In order to properly transmit ultrasonic waves and thereby guarantee a high accuracy you should simply add gel on the contact part between the sensor and the object that is to be measured then adjust the sound speed and the unit will display the thickness of the measured object.
Coating thickness gauges for material such as metal, plastic, wood, paper, precious stones are also present in our online offers.  In some coating thickness gauges, ultrasonic velocity can be selected between 1000 and 9999 m/s to penetrate different materials. Each device has a memory large enough to store a minimum of 10 measured values. They are available with digital and analogue options which cover a measuring range of 1.2 to 225 mm thick material. The measurement results can quickly take the results thanks to the easy handling of the device. They also provide support to service personnel or staff complaints. A special application of the coating thickness gauges is that they have highly  accurate value precious stones, jewelry and other valuables. 

These devices are essential to measure the coatings in the automotive sector but also and also many more, for example:

- F Model: to measure lacquers, paints, plasters, etc. on iron and steel
- N model: to measure lacquers, paints, plasters, etc. on non-ferrous metals (e.g. aluminum)
- FN model: (coating thickness gauges combined for ferrous and non ferrous substrates)

The coating thickness gauges are devices for non-destructive measurement of body paint thickness (paints, varnishes, plastics, iron, steel or non-ferrous metals). Here, the paint thickness gauge impressive features are its enormous range. As an indispensable partner for control measurements as in the workshop, and production in the all-inclusive quality assurance, the CT 28 is the basic equipment of a technician in the paint and color range. These paint thickness gauges are perfectly suitable to detect, for example, accidental damage to bodies immediately to avert damage. Ideal for any vehicle experts. But even in an industrial area this instrument is ideal for use in input and output control as well as to test material in the production with its ergonomically designed paint thickness gauge with integrated probe. In very simple operation, it is allowed to quickly identify high-accuracy measurement results. It is designed for measurements of non-magnetic coatings such as chrome, plastic, zinc, enamel, copper, enamel on steel & iron. Also for the measurement of insulating layers, such as paper, rubber, glass, plastic, enamel, lacquer, etc. on stainless steel, brass, aluminum & copper, and anodized aluminum. Due to the high temperature range, it is ideally suited for testing of coatings to waterborne and rail construction.

General information for coating thickness gauges: Especially in the automotive sector these measuring instruments are going Certificate of calibration for our Coating Thickness Gauges. to be more popular constantly. Coating thickness gauges measure the coating thickness. There are instruments too, that measure the brightness of varnish. A new varnish has got another value of brightness than an old one. UV radiation and environmental conditions can’t be hidden by polishing. The measurement results are able to show if damages, caused by accidents, have been eliminated. The original varnish coats will get thinner constantly (e.g. 110 l’m). The tolerance value of coating thickness on original varnish coats is really tight. On repainted areas there is a great fluctuation because the old varnish mostly has been grinded. The new varnish will be applied then. Also in the industrial sector coating thickness gauges will get more popular. Vessel varnishing, coats on bridge railing or machines or wood coating can be measured. Most of the coating thickness gauges are able to get calibrated according to ISO. So you can integrate these measuring instruments to your ISO-measuring tool, calibrate them and have stable accuracy.

Functionality of coating thickness gauges

Ultrasonic tests with coating thickness gauges:


During an ultrasonic test with thickness gauges, the surface will be shoot with ultrasonic waves. These will be reflected by the coating, partly. Most of the waves will enter the varnish coating until they get to the next surface (material surface). At this point, ultrasonic waves will be reflected again. Through measurement of the reflected waves, the coating thickness can be determined. 

Magnet inductive method with coating thickness gauges:

The magnet inductive method is used to measure non-conductive coatings like varnish and color on ferrous metals. In this process, a magnetic field will be produced via a magnetic coil. Through approach on a magnetic ground the magnetic field will be changed. The variation in the magnetic field depends on the distance from the ground to the measuring sensor. Due to this it depends on the coating thickness.

Eddy-current tests of coating thickness gauges:

The eddy-current testing is used to measure non-conductive coatings like varnish and colours on 
non-ferrous metals. In this process eddy-currents will be induced in the measurement object. This is possible due to the coil that produces a changing magnetic field. The determination of coating thickness will be carried out by the measurement of eddy currents that is retroacting to the coil.
