Thickness Gauge FAQ
1. What is a thickness gauge?
A thickness gauge is an instrument used to measure the thickness of various materials, termasuk logam, plastik, pelapis, dan komposit. These gauges are crucial for quality control, helping ensure materials meet industry standards for thickness and uniformity. Thickness gauges are widely used in industries like manufacturing, otomotif, luar angkasa, and construction to verify the integrity of materials and identify potential defects.
2. How do ultrasonic thickness gauges work?
Ultrasonic thickness gauges use high-frequency sound waves to measure the thickness of a material. A transducer emits sound pulses into the material, and the gauge measures the time it takes for the sound waves to reflect back from the far side of the material. This method is highly accurate and can measure the thickness of metals, plastik, and other solid materials without damaging them.
3. How much does a thickness gauge cost?
The price of a thickness gauge depends on factors such as the type of material being measured, the required precision, and the additional features (such as data logging or connectivity). Basic models may start at a few hundred dollars, while advanced models for specialized applications can cost significantly more.

4. What is a coating thickness gauge?
A coating thickness gauge measures the thickness of protective coatings such as paint, pernis, or galvanization applied to materials. These gauges are essential for ensuring that coatings meet required standards for protection against corrosion or wear. They are widely used in industries like automotive, luar angkasa, and industrial painting.
5. How do you measure metal thickness?
To measure the thickness of metal without causing damage, sebuah ultrasonic thickness gauge is typically used. The device sends sound waves into the metal, calculating the thickness based on the time it takes for the waves to return. This method is ideal for measuring pipes, tank, and other metal surfaces, especially when corrosion or thinning is a concern.
6. What is a coating penetration thickness gauge?
A coating penetration thickness gauge is designed to measure the thickness of a material beneath a coating, such as the metal substrate under a layer of paint. It allows for non-destructive testing of both the coating and the base material, making it ideal for industries where coatings must remain intact, like shipbuilding and oil & gas.
7. What is the difference between ultrasonic and coating thickness gauges?
Ultrasonic thickness gauges measure the thickness of solid materials such as metals, plastik, dan komposit, ketika coating thickness gauges measure the thickness of surface coatings, like paint or varnish. Ultrasonic gauges are used when the material itself is of interest, whereas coating gauges focus on the protective layers applied to substrates.
8. How do you measure plastic thickness?
Plastic thickness can be measured non-destructively using either ultrasonik atau Hall-effect thickness gauges. Both methods are suitable depending on the application, but ultrasonic gauges are commonly used to measure solid plastics, while Hall-effect gauges are ideal for thin, flexible materials like plastic films.
9. What is mil thickness?
A mil is a unit of measurement for thickness that equals one-thousandth of an inch (0.001 inches). It is commonly used in industries like packaging and coatings to measure thin materials such as paint, plastic films, and foils. Misalnya, A 10 mil layer is 0.010 inches thick.
10. How do you measure the thickness of coatings on pipes?
To measure the thickness of coatings on pipes, A pengukur ketebalan lapisan is typically used. These gauges can measure the thickness of various coatings like paint, galvanization, or other protective layers applied to pipes. They ensure that the coatings meet industry standards for protection against corrosion and environmental factors.
