Abstract: 本文讨论了涂层厚度测厚仪的选型要点。选择适合的测厚仪需考虑以下因素:首先,选择合适的测量范围以满足实际需求,避免不必要的成本;再有就是测量精度必须足够高以确保结果准确可靠;另外,根据涂层类型选择适当的测量原理,如磁感应、涂层剥离或光学;此外,还需考虑使用环境,确保仪器适应不同条件。使用时,应遵循说明书,定期校准和维护,注意环境对测量的影响。

A coating Thickness Gauge is a device used to measure the thickness of a coating film, and is usually used for the measurement of surface coatings such as metals, plastics, and ceramics. Here are some key points and considerations when choosing a coating Thickness Gauge:

1. Measuring range: When choosing a coating Thickness Gauge, the instrument should be selected according to the thickness range of the coating film to be measured. Generally, the measurement range of the instrument should be able to meet the application requirements, and at the same time, do not over-purchase a measurement range higher than the requirement, so as to avoid unnecessary cost waste.

2. Measurement accuracy: Accuracy is an important indicator to measure the performance of the coating Thickness Gauge. When choosing a coating Thickness Gauge, an instrument with sufficient precision should be selected to ensure the reliability and accuracy of the measurement results.

3. Measuring principle: The measuring principles of coating Thickness Gauges are usually divided into three types: magnetic induction, coating peeling and optical. When selecting an instrument, the appropriate measurement principle should be selected according to the application requirements.

4. Coating type: Coating type is also one of the factors that need to be considered when choosing a coating Thickness Gauge. Different types of coatings have different requirements for the selection of measurement principles and instruments. For example, the magnetic-inductive measuring principle is suitable for metallic surfaces coated with magnetic coatings, while the optical measuring principle is suitable for the measurement of transparent coatings.

5. Use environment: Coating Thickness Gauges are usually used in different environments, such as in the laboratory, workshop, field or outdoors. Therefore, when choosing a coating Thickness Gauge, the use environment should be considered to choose a suitable model.

Key points for selection of coating Thickness Gauges that cannot be ignored are shown in Figure 1

Precautions

  • 1. When using the coating Thickness Gauge, the instruction manual should be followed, and calibration and maintenance should be carried out according to the requirements.

  • 2. Before measuring, the measuring surface should be cleaned to ensure the measurement accuracy.

  • 3. When using the coating Thickness Gauge in different environments, attention should be paid to the influence of temperature and humidity on the measurement and correction should be made.

  • 4. For different types of coating Thickness Gauges, appropriate calibration standards should be selected and calibrated as needed.
