PCE INSTRUMENTS coating thickness gauge details
PCE Instruments Coating Thickness Gauge (PCE-CT 65)
PCE Instruments Coating Thickness Gauge (PCE-CT 65) is a non-destructive measuring device designed for fast and accurate coating thickness measurement on ferrous and non-ferrous metals. It utilizes magnetic induction for ferrous materials and eddy current testing for non-ferrous metals, making it ideal for automotive paint inspection, coated material testing, and industrial quality control applications.
This coating thickness gauge includes a USB interface for data transfer and features a memory function that stores up to 1500 measurements.
